Thread regarding Hertz layoffs

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 we'll know before them, as much as I can hope...

I talked to some people close to the situation and they informed me that Car Sales is looking to make a return in 2021.

It sounds like car sales will come back, every article states temporarily closing.
But odd they didn’t just furlough everyone

Agreed, that car sales will Not return to Hertz anytime in the next 5 hrs.
Our economy is headed for disaster and possibly another Covid lockdown sometime in Nov/Dec. which will eventually doom Hertz and many other company’s.

Why a total shut down.

So sounds like it’s 50/50 if car sales will return.
I can assume that everyone involved with get a severance package? This is a plant closing/ mass lay off

Hertz is an embarrassment - you're not some mom and pop car dealer. You're a GLOBAL CORPORATION. NO EXCUSES.

  • and this is why Hertz is doomed. What kind of a dealership has no cars to sell? Pathetic.

On that basis a rental company that has no business should just close down.

Hang on... I think I have a suggestion for you guys. CLOSE DOWN.

Love, Enterprise.

Imagine you run a dealership, and you have no inventory to sell, zero! You know that in 3 months you will have cars to sell but you won’t have a single thing until then. You pay the bills every month to keep the lights on with no revenue coming in (burning cash) would you continue to keep your dealership open?

If you would, that’s just insane.

I know peoples jobs are at stake for it and many people are pay check to pay check, but if there’s no cars to sell, car sales can not be open.

Can’t take it personally, I’m sure the local agencies are hiring and looking for any kind of help possibly.

You try to temporary survive without a salary. If you combined head and d–k in the right order, you would have a factual description of yourself.

Get the facts straight please. We sold the number of cars that were mandated by the ch11 process. Every airport has all cars utilized and there’s no future plan of deletions until we refresh the fleet.

Why keep sales cars open if we don’t intend to sell anything until 2021?

It’s a temporary closure, not permanent.

This is going to sit really well with the front line staff. Paul and team getting very desperate and paying off the top GM's to keep them pushing the propoganda that all is well. He needs them spreading the word that the ledership team has it all under control. But we all know the chaos going on behind he scenes.
