Furlough

Furlough is the only option, we have about 25 days of cash left BT said not looking good, yes we have a potential funding option but to buy cars and now rental numbers are almost wiped out again, perhaps AB will just use the funding to pay for the... — read more 

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 

Car Sales

I guess the company isn't doing to bad, car sales is reopening.

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 

22 years

my dad was laid off after 22 years. his boss did not even call him. so much for loyalty.

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’?

Sales purge

Many key Sales executives have been laid off. Bob is gone. Do you think the new organization makes any sense?

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 

Bye Bye Donlen

Not really a shocker as there was much speculation this was going to happen. Dollar and/or Thrifty next?

Stockholm Syndrome

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

Whoever is still employed and singing the company’s praise has got to be in denial. EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE knows the company is a dumpster fire waiting to be put out. There are two ways this is going to end for those who still remain. You will... — read more 

Hertz is done

Country shuts down. Bankrupt. Business down 75%. Lost State Farm. Denied stock sales and bonuses from the courts. Oversold fleet. Closed all car sales permanently. Delisted. Business still down 50%. AND HERE COMES ANOTHER SHUT DOWN. (and liquidation... — read more 

I want my raise

Screw $500. I don't get all those employees who are cheering that they got a bonus. It would have been better to get a freaking raise. How can anyone be satisfied with it? This is such a sad way to keep the masses happy with breadcrumbs while those... — read more 

Bonus

Bottom feeder (flex reps) are getting a $500.00 bonus guess that was part of the 8 billion.

Insights?

What is Jef Adamms doing in Europe?

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 

Textbook Case of Terrible Leadership

Hertz Global will be forever discussed in business classrooms from Community College to Harvard on how a terrible management culture can destroy an iconic brand. The Hertz cesspool of favoritism from HLE to AP operations and must we forget the filthy... — read more

Do you really believe?

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 

Covid surge worldwide

With covid surging again world wide and winter travel season in danger, will Hertz have to keep shrinking to survive? The $1.7 billion loan is helpful but again it's borrowed money. How much more can you borrow to survive through another wave of... — 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.

Will everybody know on November 5?

I know people whose locations are closing will know by November 5 they are affected, but what about the rest of us? We know layoffs will be much wider - will it all be done on that date or will we have to wait longer to find out? I seriously doubt... — read more 

Financing Has Come Through!

More than 1.65BB dollars coming in. The champagne corks are popping in Estero and Big Bob is salivating as he makes his way to the trough.
