Topics regarding layoffs at Hertz

The end is getting closer

Hertz is car rental not car sales. Car sales coming back is not a good sign. The need to move more cars to sell and thisis a huge red flag. They are trying to delete as many cars before the final steps of the bankrupcy occurs and the courts take... — read more

No more for me

I’m so glad to be leaving. Just ticking the days away and not looking back. As the saying goes “if you don’t have anything good to say - don’t say anything at all” - and I'm going to leave it at that when it comes to this company. I just want to... — read more

Does anyone miss this place?

I’ve been gone for a few months and sometimes I miss it. Then I remember how horrible leadership was, how they ran the company into the ground - and I thank my lucky stars I’m not there. My experience with Hertz has been good when it comes to my... — read more

Not waiting to return from furlough

There comes a time when you have to do what’s best for you and your family. I took the time while on furlough to look for something better because there’s only so much one can wait when you have mouths to feed and your savings is being depleted. So I... — read more

Happy holidays!

How's holiday demand in your market? These holidays are where Hertz makes it's money in the winter. Demand in california is non existent. How is it in other states?

Brexit?

I wonder what happens to HEL now that we are almost certain about the Brexit no-deal. Will they shut down the office and move to somewhere else? Is it worth to keep an European head office in a ‘no-more-European-Country’?

Touching base

I left right before the pandemic because I had a better opportunity. Most of the people I am close to have also moved on and I was wondering how things were going? Is it still as bad as I remember it or have things gotten worse? Is leadership still... — read more

If u were laid off u were the lucky ones!

Burning it down at the expense of the customer and frontline employees. Morale is low..RM booking to 95% all day with no care. Senior leaders sitting around having their c—tails not working while locations burn.

How's the CEO doing???

Just curious on how the C-suite is doing these days. I'm sure there is plenty of pressure with Apollo there now but they will get a fat bonus in early 2021 plus another check once they are bought out. So I guess they need to keep their heads down... — read more

Does anyone think those still loyal to the company have it? I mean it would make sense considering how badly we’ve all been treated, especially frontline workers. How else would you explain such devotion? It can’t be for the pay, everyone knows it’s... — read more

Two years with this place

Today makes exactly two years since I've joined Hertz. I can tell you right now that I regretted joining within the first six months, but by now I feel it was probably one of the biggest mistakes in my life. I thought I was leaving my old job for a... — read more 

Get your head out of the sand

The future of the company

I saw some speculation on this forum that the entire company will be shut down by the middle of next year. On the other hand, I have now checked - Hertz has 1,224 jobs open in the US alone. That doesn’t make much sense to me. I agree that we are... — read more

C’mon guys. Does anyone in the company REALLY believe our leaders need another bonus to fix the mess we are in? Isn’t that the reason they were hired? Instead they feel entitled to more and have done absolutely nothing in return to help save the... — read more

Hertz won't exist in a year

There won't even be a swan song. This Titanic is ready to sink and there's no stopping it. If you're smart, you'll be gone before that happens.
