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

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

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

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

Is anyone surprised?

Hertz filled the leaderships ranks with people with no industry experience. None. Every Single top and mid level position, zero industry experience. And did this for the better part of last 7 years. And told us the way to run car rental was with... — read more

Hertz Lost State Farm - Liquidation Next

Think I’m lying? If we re-signed as primary, they would have sent out 529363629 public announcements. It’s way past due for an announcement. They are keeping it hush-hush while they liquidate. If they told you all, everyone would just give up... — read more

We should not be trying to keep this leadership

Couple million to keep lousy leaders onboard in the grand scheme of things IS something. They broke it, no need to reward them in excess to what they already lined their packets with for retention bonuses paid. If they are not working for the best... — read more
