Great place to build a career

Pros

United Rentals has great leadership and a clear strategy, which makes it an exciting place to work. The culture is very collaborative—we truly operate as one team, pushing to be the best while supporting each other along the way. There’s also some genuinely impressive technology here, especially tools like Total Control and the mobile app. I’ve found there are lots of opportunities to be yourself, learn, and grow your career.

Cons

Because the organization is so large and active, there’s a lot going on at any given time, which can sometimes make it hard to keep track of everything—but it also means there’s never a shortage of interesting work.

Pros

They have benefited from high levels of investment from the US providing excellent availability of products to hire.

Cons

Management experience is poor, many staff did not know what they did. Culture in the UK was negative with little support and a blame culture.

Cons

not many. too corporate at the top with a less corporate feel at ground level. which becomes conflicting at times as the culture changes quickly.
