Pros

We work as a team, everyone from service to sales. Our employees are passionate about what we do and we are confident that we will get the job done. If we don’t know how, we will find out how and make it happen. I love our team!

Cons

United Rentals likes to change how they do things quite often. Change can be hard, especially if you are set in your ways. However, the change is always for good reason.

Pros

Great benefits, with several perks such as company truck, phone and ETC... Great place to work if they don’t micro manage. Commission structure is great. Goals can be reasonable to attain.

Cons

Micro-management to the 10th power. Bad decision by management, made on who management likes better. Pushes education to certain people to get a particular position but others will get the position if their friends or family. Deserving people will get looked over. Too many favorites And a large amount of Nepotism and cronyism. Mostly seen in the Mississippi-Tenn area like nephews getting hired with no proper background in sales over deserving people who’ve been with the company for years.
