Pros

Good team to work in the company, funny guys specially the manager and his colleague (muslims I think they are for shure) and the drivers/valleters a little bit like silence guys but good persons too. The advantage in the company for me or for others who want to drive cars it's good - customers contact to explain how works some dashboard in the car etc. Not so much job because the deliveryes and picking vehicles are close the the branch.

Cons

Short distance driving, is borring because not all the time is driving in the road with the car. Some times we must to clean the vehicles and that is not very nice. Normally the company must to employee one valletter to clean cars and the drivers to drive only. Sunday is the worse day because you stay as police man in car and you watch keeping eyes to the vehicles and customers who are coming inside. Small payment 6.20 pounds per hour and the payment is monthly not weekly - this is London and the life is expensive.

Pros

Excellent work environment, helpful managers

Cons

It only takes one or two customer reviews to affect you negatively. Disproportionate to the number of customers you handle.

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
