Pros

Flexible Scheduling Downtime Experience Co workers Paid training in Fort Lauderdale.

Cons

They will promote people that have worked there for a month over hard working employees that have proved themselves for over a year. Don't work in a downtown branch, airport only or your entire work time with them will amount to nothing. Commission at downtown branches is awful even for top performers.

We are happy to hear that you are enjoying your time at Sixt! We strive to provide the best training, flexibility, and work life balance for all of our employees so we are glad you are seeing positive results. We feel that our downtown branches are a great place to start your career with Sixt as apposed to an Airport. The downtown may be slower paced, however, there is more room to learn different aspects of the business which can put you ahead of others in the long run. In fact, all of our Management Trainee's also start at the downtown's for their first rotation because we feel that this is a great representation of the rental car business and all that goes into being a manager. For instance, as a Rental Sales Agent at a downtown you may help your manager with fleet planning, deliveries, and even returns which are most tasks that an RSA at an Airport would not have experience with. We would encourage you to reach out to HR or even your Branch or Regional/Area Manager about promotion opportunities and what you can do to move up quickly. Typically if an employee is going the extra mile, helping with managerial duties on their downtime, taking initiative to problem solve, and prompt while still providing great service, they are a shoe in for a promotion. Sixt is a company dedicated to performance and investing in those that show passion and hunger for the company. Please reach out to Gaddy Fernandez (VP of HR) if she can be of any assistance to your growth at Sixt. You can reach her at 954-874-1793. We wish you much success with your future at Sixt!

Pros

• Strong learning experience in business operations, especially P&L, pricing, and revenue growth • Opportunity to work with talented and driven colleagues • Clear performance structure with defined KPIs and bonus incentives • Fast-paced environment that builds resilience and management skills • Good exposure to leadership communication and corporate expectations

Cons

• High-pressure, top-down culture with constant focus on results • Middle management roles can feel unsupported despite high expectations • Disciplinary actions sometimes felt excessive for minor issues • Workplace culture included gossip and lack of professionalism at times • Limited coaching and development—more focus on outcomes than guidance • Bonus structure can be difficult to fully achieve due to split KPIs • Customer service metrics felt unrealistic to consistently control • Perception of over-policing performance (both under- and over-performance scrutinized) • Advancement expectations are aggressive; may not be ideal for those not seeking rapid promotion • Frontline employees appear prioritized over management support

Dear former employee, thank you for taking the time to share such a balanced and thoughtful review after your time with us in Los Angeles. We're glad to hear that you valued the learning opportunities, the talented colleagues, and the clear performance structure. At the same time, we take your concerns seriously – particularly around management support, coaching, and the fairness of our bonus and disciplinary structures. A high-performance environment should come with the right guidance and your feedback is valuable as we continue to develop a culture at Team Orange where both results and people matter. If you'd like to share more in confidence, feel free to reach out at talents@sixt.com. We wish you all the best in your next chapter. Best regards
