Thread regarding Hertz layoffs

2013 saw a ton of growth in the NY region. For the first time in my decade at HTZ, offices were properly staffed and there was a real focus on top-line growth, account acquisitions and even expansion into the "on demand" market with Hertz 24/7. 2014 saw the company start dialing back; first by canceling the 24/7 program, then by downsizing HLE staffing. 2015, the NY Zone basically called it quits on the whole growth thing. Offices are closed down for the first time since 2009 and Area Managers are basically sicced on location managers and subordinates. If you can't sell you can't stay, leadership skills be damned. Not to mention vehicles with 60-70k are in fleet, more pressure is put on managers to keep those dilapidated cars looking as good as they can. It starts at the top. HTZ is going backwards. USeyour employees, don't deride and demean them. At this rate, they'll concede all HLE business to Enterprise soon enough.
