Thank you for sharing your review regarding your experience with Sixt in Germany. Here at Sixt US, we do compensate hourly employees who work overtime. Furthermore, salaried employees are compensated at very competitive rates to compensate for additional hours they may work due to their position requirements. We appreciate your feedback, and will use this to improve our operations.

Pros

behave nice only from outside

Cons

-The working environment is fake. You do not know the person who works closely with you is actually said sth behind your back. Communication is bad. I have 1 and 1 with my direct manager every 2 weeks, never 1 time complain, all seems to be normal. The end of my probation time, they said I am not matching. What kind of Manager keep you in the darkness for the whole 6 months, no 1 time give you a chance to know things wrong to improve ? - The colleagues who stay longer in the team have more inluence on the management. In other words, if you are new, the Manager will not listen to you or give you the chance to defense yourself. It is not the place for foreigners, you will feel fake connection from the others in the team - Shows nice outside, but inside, not open for another opinions at all. In fact, if they think they are right, they will terminate you, not even give you the clues why, or any warnings before. At the end of the day, they will say, you do not match. So the whole recruiting process is a joke, the 6 months no constructive feedback is a waste of time. Time, money is wasted because of this poor team for Sixt itself. -repetitive task. The older person in the team have the rights to give you whatever he / she thinks is right, do not care you are employed actually not for all the time doing these tasks -no rights, if you are especially the only foreigner in the team. They recruit someone foreigner because they think they are ready for diversity, but in fact the way to diversity is still very far for this team in Sixt. The whole team is not ready, not with these closed minds. - you are not welcomed there. They will let you alone, in the work, in the party....The minimum hello is not there, you have to intitate the conversations
