Pros

The coworkers are great and easy to get along with. Freedom of mobility on the job(picking up and dropping off customers) and you get to drive various cars as well. Plenty of praise and compliments when you work hard. The ability to learn how to run a business which in turn can be added to your resume. Good experience right out of college in the business world.

Cons

Mostly extremely stressful. The company is always worried about high labor costs so sometimes you will run the office by yourself when there are a hundred things going on. (phones ringing, customers in the lobby, cars that need to be washed.) It will make you pull your hair out. On top of that the wage is terrible. 50+ hours a week so expect your life to be at Hertz.

Pros

The use of a company vehicle anywhere in the US as a Location Manager is a great benefit. There is recurring training available free of charge.

Cons

The free car is not worth what you have to do. They say it is a chance to run your own company without the risk, but they tie your hands and place road blocks in your way. 95% of upper management have never worked at the branch level and therefore do not have a good idea of the struggles you have. The pressure sales approach lowers morale. Upper management does not have anyones interest in mind except their own.
