Inevitable Growth, Great Networking Oppurtunities
Pros
If you come to work to work - upper management will do everything in their power to move you into a position that you want or that they feel fits you best and that you would likely thrive in. Great pay, great hours (sometimes makes it difficult for a work/life balance), and great benefits. Because branches have to reach out to each other concerning equipment, customers, and more - there are many opportunities to meet new people in other positions and learn more about what career path you'd like to follow. In the short amount of time I have been here - I've already met the CEO twice and the COO once; Upper management genuinely tries to make an appearance and converse with you on a personal level to see what your needs are or what they can do to improve the company/workplace.
Cons
Learning programs, dispatch programs, and other programs used for internal operations could be better organized. Coming onboard can be a little overwhelming because of how disorganized it feels but if you're resourceful and ask the right questions it can be rewarding. Local/traditional branches only have anywhere from 4-12 employees - so you have to be prepared to learn everyone's habits and mannerisms so that you can work alongside each other for at least five days a week for ten to twelve hours at a time. Herc is growing and you have to be patient and want to grow with the company; This means sticking through the rough days where a loyal customer has to go to a competitor because Herc did not have the correct/amount of equipment needed for their job.
