Pros

there are none. The positive reviews on here are a bunch of lies.

Cons

they don't have a worker's council - they are famous for firing people who attempt to start one. if you are sick, they will take the sick days off of your holidays. so if you are in the hospital for a week, you don't get a single day off all year. they treat their employees poorly and encourage aggressive behavior in managers. I worked a 15 hour shift once (no overtime pay), drove home, 3 hours later I was called in to work again. I told HR, they told me to go back to work. They dont care - they are busy writing themselves reviews on Glassdoor. Worst company I ever worked for - never again.

Pros

It's an unrecognized job by management, they don't care about you unless you make them more money so they get bonuses. All they care about is performance metrics, no matter what you do to your co-workers.

Cons

Expected to work in an outdated color arrangement that is mostly black. When it's 100 degrees out, on hot asphalt, not ideal. They expect you to log the tiniest damage so that they can bill the customer. Do they not take depreciation on the cars. Their fuel gages are wonky and don't work right. I believe they are charging customers for fuel when they shouldn't.
