Assuming you got a decent degree than yes, you should be able to find a job that pays more than 30K with just a bachlors. Entry level for most positions out of college is 40K. However lets just go with the average entry level is 30K a year. That of course is based from a company that is paying 30K for 40 hours a week, not 50+ like Enterprise. The amount that is paid to MT's is an absolute insult.
Enterprise claims that they want the best employees. If that was the case dont you think that they would reward those employees with a decent salary to begin with?

Enterprise rewards absolute tools in the company. They promote the people that are the most deceptive to customers. They want to promote the people that will not flinch to a customer when they tell them a Neon is a fullsize car. They want people that are in the "good old boys club." They want people who treat the company like it is a fraternity where it is unacceptable if you are not getting shit faced at company events. They want people that don't raise questions about company practices. To corporate everything is just perfect the way it is and the formula does not need to be changed at all. Enterprise is devoted to screwing over as many customers as possible while begging for customers to give them a completely satisfied. That's the Enterprise way.

LOL. Some of the people on this site have been with the company more than just a month. Please stop trying to impress people with your inflated annual income. You are just the typical ERAC tool that takes their best commission month and multiplies it by twelve. Sorry to break it to you but you will not be getting 85K or close to it by the end of the year.

If it has taken you 4 years to get to your third branch you are moving at averge an average pace at best. Watch your career come to a stand still if you do get that area manager position. You will be making 90k a year but you are will be working 50 hours a week. You can forget all about becoming an RRM, RVP or above. Those fat cats aren't going to move.

How much time do you get to spend with your kids??? You should be in the branch for 50 hours a week. You need to work some Saturdays in the month. You have to go to all the happy hours and MVP and what not. There are quite a few people that I know that have families and they get to hardly spend any time with their kids because they are always busy with company crap. One branch manager in particular would bring in her children on the weekends when she was working just so she could see them. How is that for a family oriented organization.
What awards does ERAC get??? The ESQI based crap? Once again, we hound are customers to get a completely satisfied answer. Here is your typical senario: "Well Mr. Johnson, I appologize that we didn't have the full-sized car that you reserved with us a month ago and we gave you the "free" upgrade into a Dodge Ram. I am also sorry that it wasn't washed or vacuumed because our wash was "broken" at the time. What I can do for you is give you a free upgrade for your next rental, would that make you completely satisfied?
If Enterprise was really customer service oriented it wouldn't mention the survey to customers. They would allow the customer to give their pure response on the service that they received.

No one expects Enterprise to be the perfect company that makes all the right moves. I do however expect a company to take action when their are problems instead of saying everything is just perfect. Obviously there is a problem with the company if so many people come on this website and talk about how bad the service is, how the customers get screwed, and how the employees are treated. Also, the "jackass" that created this site didn't create it because he felt like it one day. He was sick of all the bullshit that he dealt with from his previous rentals. He was sick of getting the same lines of appologies, free upgrades, and asking if he was completely satisfied.

Says who, the corporate monkeys that said it before you and in turn you just repeat it. You tell me how we work hard to please our customers. Please explain what it is we do that is so different in how we please our customers, how we listen to each of our customers and how we work harder to please them.

Thats a bold claim. How can you predict that, because of previous years? Well let me let you in on what is going on. The company is starting to decline. If you look at previous history we are making less money in regards to operating profit. We do however stay afloat because of the "flip" that is generated. Flip constitues more and more of the total percentage of Net Profit. Enterprise is just turning into a used car distribution center. It is becoming less and less of a car rental agency. Hertz had a higher increase in growth last year than Enterprise did. Saying that we are going to be the best ever is just stupid to say, especially when this company that is the "best" stays with the same tired ass formula for how they run their business.
