Pros

United Rentals feels like family, not coworkers. Even though we are a company of over 16,000, it feels like everybody knows your name. Upper management cares about their employees. We work together with a mantra of ONE UR. There is nothing that could tear us apart. Its not that I haven't met all of my UR family, its that I haven't met all of my UR family YET. We have an amazing safety culture. Each morning we start off with a safety meeting and do meta-postures.

Cons

You work long hours, but you are well compensated for it. Depending on what job you take with the company, it can be dangerous. No matter how safety conscious we are, we work in a very dangerous industry and accidents can happen.

Pros

Hybrid WFH 2 days a week, Decent Pay, Flexible with you if you need time off or have emergencies. Big company means office parties, free food opportunities, nice break rooms, and stock options after 2 years. Great for entry level experience to leverage for higher positions elsewhere or within

Cons

Upper management for this particular department seems to have no direction. You'll fight coworkers for sales sometimes unless you have a good relationship with your field team. The region you're assigned is everything even if they tell you everyone is equal. Some regions have long winters and do use much equipment while other territories stay steady year round. Some territories only want to work with a field rep and not a remote rep and if you're in a bad territory you won't be in the position long. The District Managers of your region understand that the book of business you're given isn't supposed to be all that profitable and are thrilled when you have positive growth, but your department manager will make you feel like you suck at your job.
