Pros

Work/life balance, shift flexibility, training and support to help you grow within the company.

Cons

A lot of the systems are written in German with poor translation at times. They seem to be working that out though.

Thank you for taking some take to review our company! We are delighted to hear that you have the support and training necessary to fulfill your job responsibilities to the best of your ability- which can result in a job promotion! Keep up the great work and we'll see you at the top! Sixt is a German car rental company that still utilizes tools and technology from our home Head Quarter in Germany. Although we are the USA Operations, we like to keep our company international- we even offer German classes to select employees. Thanks for the advice! We're hungry to grow and dominate the Car Rental market- with employees like you, we know we can do it! #OrangePower

Pros

• Strong learning experience in business operations, especially P&L, pricing, and revenue growth • Opportunity to work with talented and driven colleagues • Clear performance structure with defined KPIs and bonus incentives • Fast-paced environment that builds resilience and management skills • Good exposure to leadership communication and corporate expectations

Cons

• High-pressure, top-down culture with constant focus on results • Middle management roles can feel unsupported despite high expectations • Disciplinary actions sometimes felt excessive for minor issues • Workplace culture included gossip and lack of professionalism at times • Limited coaching and development—more focus on outcomes than guidance • Bonus structure can be difficult to fully achieve due to split KPIs • Customer service metrics felt unrealistic to consistently control • Perception of over-policing performance (both under- and over-performance scrutinized) • Advancement expectations are aggressive; may not be ideal for those not seeking rapid promotion • Frontline employees appear prioritized over management support

Dear former employee, thank you for taking the time to share such a balanced and thoughtful review after your time with us in Los Angeles. We're glad to hear that you valued the learning opportunities, the talented colleagues, and the clear performance structure. At the same time, we take your concerns seriously – particularly around management support, coaching, and the fairness of our bonus and disciplinary structures. A high-performance environment should come with the right guidance and your feedback is valuable as we continue to develop a culture at Team Orange where both results and people matter. If you'd like to share more in confidence, feel free to reach out at talents@sixt.com. We wish you all the best in your next chapter. Best regards
