Pros

1)Coworkers are very nice and met some wonderful people 2) people in IT and HR are very helpful

Cons

1) pay increases are extremely low, about 1-3% a year 2) management can be nasty and difficult to deal with, no wonder turnover is so high 3) benefits are terrible compared to other large companies 4) not much room for advancement 5) people work in silos 6) don’t expect HR to give you an overview of benefits before you start 7) in the office 5 days a work; even Hertz is hybrid 8) very high turnover, even though not many major employers in the area

Thank you for sharing your experience. You have raised some serious concerns that need to be addressed. We are very competitive with compensation and benefits in our industry, and we are very proud of our very low turnover rate. Our values include “We do what’s right, “We’re in this together, and “We prove ourselves every day.” These words speak to our culture at our core as an organization, contrasting with several of the things you’ve mentioned. I understand that being in the office 5 days a week may not be for everyone. It does, however, help us avoid working in silos If that is not for you, we hope you have found a place that lets you grow your career. Please feel free to reach out if you would like to discuss your time with us further.
