Former Employee – worked at Enterprise Rent-A-Car part-time for less than a year

ProsOverall great experience. Currently - working somewhere else. However, my thoughts and experiences are positive of this company. Initial pay is sub-par. If your looking to move up expect to put your time in and hit your sales goals (2-3 years)

ConsWashing cars in a suit or dress, listening to customers asking, "you need a college degree to work here?"

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Former Employee – worked at Enterprise Rent-A-Car full-time for more than 3 years

Prosyou can move up in the company very quickly, and there are many opportunities, and the company has one of the best training programs.

ConsThe hours are very long typically 6:45 AM-6:30 PM M-F and Sat 8:30 AM-12:30 some offices are also open on Sundays. In the management trainee program the hours are not that bad because you typically work every other weekend and get to leave one day a week early. However, when you become a manager you tend to work longer hours and if you are at a large store rarely have time to take a lunch break. The pay was also not what I was promised as a manager you make commission off what the office makes and your percentage is based off of what the previous manager did but you are suppose to make no less then 55/year for working 50-60 hour weeks.

Advice to Senior ManagementThe company is great to start your career. However, not somewhere to stay long term, it really is a fun environment and the free trainings are great. As you move up in the company though, the managers do not receive the proper compensation for the demand of the business the hours that are worked are long and uncalled for and most offices are short staffed. The company needs to add more people and have them work less hours. If the company could figure out a way to rotate schedules so everyone gets at least one day off during the middle of the week more people would stay, I would say the biggest complaint for the company is the hours that are worked, it is not worth the pay that is given.
