Pros

Great pay, flexibility in scheduling(shifts), understanding management, paid training, amazing discounts on rentals, fun cars to drive, great relationships built between coworkers and third party cleaning company for fleet, second chances at proving you can do your job well if you had a rough couple weeks/months in meeting goal, being recognized in your department for doing a good job(stats)

Cons

Only full time positions available(I wanted to stay and be a part time CSA but the shifts are in 8 hour increments), if one person on your team was not meeting goal consistently, the whole team has to be re-coached instead of the one "bad apple," only one main manager to report to(branch manager) instead of having multiple leadership positions for each separate role of the operation, being a newer company trying to grow in the US, not enough space in the airport lot for all fleet and customers during peak season(summer), management caring more for RSAs than CSAs.

Thank you for taking the time to review Sixt as your former employer. It is great to know that you enjoyed the company so much that you hope to join us again when your schedule allows! We hope to see you back. It is our goal to reward employees for a job well done, and offer points of improvement when needed. Likewise, we absolutely agree, all of our employees are equally important and everyone should be recognized for contributing to the companies success. Thank you for your dedication to Sixt and our customers!

Pros

Pay was decent but daily stress made it not worth it

Cons

Very unstructured work environment and very little support from management. Company trains associates to use risky and dishonest sales tactics. Sales agents end up getting the back lash from furious customers and management is not of much help.

Thank you for reviewing Sixt. Across the board, our Regional Sales Performance team, Supervisors, Trainers, and Managers are consistent with our sales training practices that focus on building relationships with customers and matching their needs with upgrades in the vehicle. Although we do encourage customers to upgrade when the offer matches their needs, we train our employees to approach the customer in a more consultative manner to not come off as aggressive. In no way would corporate encourage dishonest sales tactics that would damage our relationship with our customers. We would encourage you to reach out to Gaddy Fernandez, VP of HR, to discuss your review. She can be reached it 954-874-1793.

Pros

Had great time in Training

Cons

no job security company can fire you without any warning. Worst company I ever work for. I have been working since I was 18yrs and have never had anything like this happen to.

We appreciate you taking the time to voice your concerns about the training program. Training is hard work and takes a lot of dedication if you hope to become a Branch Manager within a years’ time. With that said, our training team is very accommodating with all of our trainees and are dedicated to coaching and investing in those that show enthusiasm for Sixt. Of course those that show they are motivated and are eager to learn will advance regardless of whether or not they need extra coaching. We are proud to say that our retention rate for the International Management Trainee program is well over 80% due to our customized training program.
