Business picking up at Thrifty
My managers are excited that on Friday we have 70 reservations. At this time last year we had 250+. A lot of those reservations won't show. One of my managers is confident that Hertz won't sell our location or shut us down because we offer parking... — read more

Starting to get rid of cars
Just noticed in fleet notes hertz is starting to have to get ride of cars in August, so far I’ve seen 150k in August and 150k in September. I’m sure that just the start of it
What is the future for Donlen?
Donlen fleet services is a very strong business, they have done well even before the acquisition by Hertz. How will it work out when Hertz does shut its doors for good?

I don't want to came back to the hell that is now Hertz
I keep in touch with managers in the western region and I here they are getting stretched thin to the point where what the company promises to Party City can't be done. They need to have 40 hours for the front line plain and simple. I hope they... — read more

How is life at Hertz today for you?
Lets hear from each region!
Things have been the same for decades
The "Be happy you have a job" attitude was around when I first went to work for the company over 25 years ago. It never changed during my tenure. I finally left when it was clear they were not interested in doing anything about a rapidly declining... — read more
Some much confusion and rumors what too believe
Who do I believe? Opening HLE? Furloughs are ending this week? Layoffs on June 12? Severance packages are being taken away? Paul is great!
Furloughed going to be laid off
The rest of the hertz employees that are on furlough, will be laid of on the 12th. Or before, say good bye to that severance
Severance still going??
Has only been paid more than the bankruptcy limit $13,650 and still got paid today?? I dumped that money out of my account quicker than those cars burned in Ft Myers....
Got a call from hertz in San diego
I was a mechanic and they called to see if I was interested in a pilot program with fed ex , doing deliveries in a hertz truck. I would still be a hertz employee. Opinions?
No support
Support of any kind for those of us still here is pretty much non existent. The attitude of management is be happy you have a job and if you don't like it leave there are plenty of people who can fill your spot. Just when you thought things could not... — read more
Is this even legal?
Can Hertz really back out of paying severance to people AFTER they have already signed the severance agreement? That sounds highly illegal and ripe for a lawsuit to me. I don't know much about bankruptcy proceedings, but if this can be done, then... — read more
Locations reopening
Why are they beginning to reopen HLE locations that were temporarily closed when people are trying to say part of the plan is to close them all down?
Restructure
Does anyone know when they are going to release some sort of restructuring plan?
Hertz has always
Feel bad for those laid off but Hertz is one screwed up company...few years back the illegally did things in Seattle, WA.
keep fighting
As a current Hertz employee, I've done and will continue to do what I can to save this organization that so many have built over the years. I don't do that for the senior execs. I do that so the people I lead will remain employed and be able to feed... — read more

I have had enough! Why am I a delivery person for Party City? This is how my time is being spent? What a joke.
Be prepared for the worst
The peers and coworkers I have met and had the privilege to work with have been the greatest thing about the 18 years I have been at Hertz. As much as I separate my personal life and work I have had the opportunity to see their families grow as they... — read more
Let me get this straight
