Pros

Salary, Bonus, and that's all

Cons

I work for the Sixt head quarters in Berlin Germany, and honesty this is the worst company I have worked for in all my professional career. They lied to you about conditions, promotions since the very begining ( I mean the interview) anything you want to hear to let you in (even if you are working for a different company) Then once you are in... The fun begins, not serious schedulles, working long hours every weekend and late shift. Even when you advice them the holidays within 3 months, with several reminders they tell you 2 weeks in advance you can't go. Really unprofesional in every single detail. Also they don't tell you in the interview you will work though a temp agency and you will not get your payment until the 15 of the month after.

Pros

Not really anything I can think of.

Cons

False promises, commission is often taken away due to ridiculous reasons, rude customers and no help from management, no vehicles to supply customers. The company is trying to open so many locations with out even being able to keep afloat the current locations they have. Terrible work/life balance

Thank you for taking the time to review Sixt as your current employer. We appreciate your feedback. We agree, it is important to focus on our current branches in the United States. Over the course of the past year this is exactly what we have done and the improvements have been significant. We are consistently finding ways to become more innovative in order to provide our employees and customers with the best Sixt experience. Of course, there is always room to improve. The adaptability and motivation our employees possess help us to achieve our success. Our fleet teams on site as well as our mangers forecast demand for vehicles based off of reservations and season. Depending on the amount of walk-ins and no-shows the amount of cars will vary. We realize that this may be frustrating to the sales agent, however, there are alternatives that you can offer the customer. Your fleet team and managers will also communicate with you in regards to these changes. Again, we appreciate your feedback and are concerned about what you have listed in this review. We would encourage you to reach out to Gaddy Fernandez, the VP of HR, to discuss your concerns so that we can find solutions and provide a better outlook. Please call 954-874-1793.

Pros

Make base pay every check. which is pretty decent. You will always get hours. and if you need days off for trips or a random weekend they are pretty cool about that.

Cons

I work at a slower branch so the opportunity for more commission is not as great. overall sixt is a great company. I would recommend it. customers can be pretty mean.

We are happy to hear that you are enjoying your time at Sixt and appreciate the pay and time off structure that we offer. As you mentioned the downtown locations are not as busy as the airports, however, you have the opportunity to spend more time with your customers and that can result in higher commission. Thank you for your feedback as well. We have implemented refresher training for our current employees recently so you will see more of this in the future. Good luck with all of your future endeavors with Sixt. We wish you much success!
