Pros

The Atlanta team is amazing. The other rental agents are very friendly and work together well while maintaining professionalism. The branch manager is a very hard worker and truly goes the extra mile to motivate his team and create such a professional and well-oiled machine. The staff in the garage works very hard and communicates with the counter well. Overall, each part of the team, from the branch/fleet managers to the garage and counter, is very influential and create a fun yet hard-working environment. Because the company is so new to the US, there is a lot of room for growth. Promotions come quickly to those who deserve them and there is instant gratification of the impact that you can have on the company with hard work and customer service skills.

Cons

The hours can be long and the shifts can be inconsistent. You work mornings, nights, weekends, and holidays since we are open 24/7. With those hours of operation, the changes in the schedule and working holidays is to be expected, but the branch manager does a very good job of being fair with the schedule. The cars we have vs. reservations in place don't always match up, so it is hard to keep people happy if you don't have what they want. On the bright side, it's great to make people happy with complimentary upgrades or discounts on upgrades that they wouldn't know we have otherwise.

Pros

Excellent work environment, helpful managers

Cons

It only takes one or two customer reviews to affect you negatively. Disproportionate to the number of customers you handle.

Pros

• Strong learning experience in business operations, especially P&L, pricing, and revenue growth • Opportunity to work with talented and driven colleagues • Clear performance structure with defined KPIs and bonus incentives • Fast-paced environment that builds resilience and management skills • Good exposure to leadership communication and corporate expectations

Cons

• High-pressure, top-down culture with constant focus on results • Middle management roles can feel unsupported despite high expectations • Disciplinary actions sometimes felt excessive for minor issues • Workplace culture included gossip and lack of professionalism at times • Limited coaching and development—more focus on outcomes than guidance • Bonus structure can be difficult to fully achieve due to split KPIs • Customer service metrics felt unrealistic to consistently control • Perception of over-policing performance (both under- and over-performance scrutinized) • Advancement expectations are aggressive; may not be ideal for those not seeking rapid promotion • Frontline employees appear prioritized over management support

Dear former employee, thank you for taking the time to share such a balanced and thoughtful review after your time with us in Los Angeles. We're glad to hear that you valued the learning opportunities, the talented colleagues, and the clear performance structure. At the same time, we take your concerns seriously – particularly around management support, coaching, and the fairness of our bonus and disciplinary structures. A high-performance environment should come with the right guidance and your feedback is valuable as we continue to develop a culture at Team Orange where both results and people matter. If you'd like to share more in confidence, feel free to reach out at talents@sixt.com. We wish you all the best in your next chapter. Best regards
