Hertz Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"It was a great work environment. The supervisor was always so understanding and firm as well, which was good for development."

"You clean cars all day. Upper Management does not care about rank and File."

"It's a nice company, but I feel overworked."

"This is a terrible and toxic company to work for. It is being run into the ground by upper Management. They hire unqualified friends who run good employees out the door. The Company is nearly bankrupt and has monthly layoffs. It loses hundreds of millions of dollars every year. You will be expected to work 7 days a week. You can also expect your salary, position, and manager to change for the worse multiple times throughout the year. Any good review you read is fake and written by an employee who was threatened to do so from Senior Management. I know, as I was threatened multiple times. It is a sad, unpleasant, and unprofessional place to work."

"Great place, but a lot of politics, poor training, work with unfair managers, sometimes hostile work environment, back stabbing, poor managers that have poor people skills and don't know nothing about cars."

"I have to say, that working for Hertz beyond a year is not worth it. The "opportunity for growth" is just the company giving a significantly higher amount of responsibility with a 50 cent or $1 pay raise to show for it. We are always understaffed, always overworked, and told to work different locations at the drop of a dime without much notice all because of mismanagment. The pay is not equivalent to the hard work most employees here put in. Not to mention, they'll work you 6, sometimes 7 days a week, depending on your location if you do not complain and remind them at the time of hiring, you were told you would get 2 days a week off like most work places. You'll burn out quick, look elsewhere for employment. Most are great to work with. 0 work life balance"

"For two years beginning in 2012, working with Hertz Rental Car has shown that the company employs many types of people from diverse, multicultural backgrounds. As a corporation, they are the second largest in the rental vehicle industry. The company highly values its customers privacy, employs success minded individuals and has one the best training programs for its employees. Hertz merged with two other companies and has almost tripled their stock as a result. Hertz is located throughout California in order to increase their market share and reach as many customers & businesses as possible."

"One of the best companies in New Jersey. Great environment to work in. Got so much experience from this company"

"I worked very hard for this company all of 6+ months, working 10-14 hour days consistently with one day off. Much of my shift I worked alone and had to manage the entire facility, including our partner branches, Dollar/Thrifty, from customer issues, vehicle availability, lot inspections, vehicle transport, detail and assisting customers. In essence I did the work of my employees because they were not trained well enough to complete their job or it was not within their job description to participate in such tasked that they refused to work. Favoritism is evident, the company will reward you for tolerance. If you stay with the company long enough and become one of the oldest members you move up in ranking. Its not based on merit, ability, skill, education or any of those things, just if you have stayed around the longest you get to move up in ranks to receive maybe a morning shift, less coaching, maybe a weekend off or get assigned help, grants of vacation and personal days. The worst workers, of course, hide behind the over achievers, stellar employees to avoid accountability and the workload. The low performers get all the good attention for helping, but its just pure laziness. These employee just do not want to work or work with a customer. The people are usually loners and are always on break, the restroom, printing something or running to grab something they left somewhere on the site. Low pay, for $19 an hour but this is only for an 8hr shift, everything else is just labor. Bonuses only go to the GM who pulls in $100K and brags to you about his weekends off, his boat he just bought and how if you stick around for a year you move up in ranks, but only after my favorites reach their full potential. In a nutshell, avoid this company unless it's you last resort for employment, even then you should continue your search."

"Not a good company to work for at this time. Need to wait until they have corrected all of the problems. Unless you can get into management you will be thrown under the bus and worked to the bone."

"Great job right out of school to gain experience. Long hours sometimes poorly staffed. The compensation is not good for the amount of hours you have to work."

"I have worked at Hertz Inc. for 3 yrs and it's an okay job."

"I worked with Hertz in Off-Airport Operations for 6 years. This is not a job for most people. It requires hard work and long hours, however there is lots of opportunity to promote and bonus. Those who adhere to Hertz sales standards and keep a positive attitude will find like minded people that are great to work with."

"I didn't work at Hertz very long, but the company culture was very welcoming. The developers all got along, and you were given a lot of independence to get your jobs done."
