Overall Reviews at Penske

Good company to work for, premier in the industry
Worked for 8 years but recently laid off due to dissolution of my district. Management is so so and micromanage the sales teams to a fault. Some managers take care of their associates and others not so much. Local management team determines how good it can be to work for. Pay is decent for sales but could be better.

Very Fast-Paced, Multi-tasking Required w/ Excellent Upward Mobility Potential
I've held positions on the rental counter, in the call center, in phone coaching, and in management in various departments and locations. In each position, I found a supportive supervisory team who worked hard to create the best environment possible in an industry that does not lend well to comfortable working environments. Field and management positions require an extreme amount of off-the-clock availability. If you have a good attitude, work hard, and can manage multiple tasks at once, you will excel.
ProsAdvancement opportunity, job security
ConsDepending on the position, could negatively impact work/life balance

Pretty Content
This is a good place to work at. I love my job and Penske has been good to me. They have always accommodated me when needed as far as hours. Pay is somewhat fair. As far as job security, if you are a good worker they will make sure to find ways to keep you. They only downfall is that you are on accounts and the time does expire with an account.

Horrible Program
Wasted 3 years of my life. Only friends and family of upper management get promoted.
Pros: Relocation, work with great vendors/customers, and weekly pay to start
Cons: Managers all just friends, hard work doesn’t matter, hostile work environment

Warm body holding a place for the next victim once management decides to recycle you.
You’re basically a warm body filling the needs of the department. No one cares about you but always seem to care what you are doing(Working from home) there is no positive feedback ever, everything is negative. Most nights you come in and there’s 200+ calls on hold, management is never reachable and you are pretty much left for dead.
ProsPay, benefits, incentives
ConsTerrible management, you’re just a warm body, no personal connections, shifts are terrible - no work/home balance, very mentally staining

Extremely Misogynistic
If you're a gal, don't even bother. The men can't take a woman being better at their job than them, and will do literally anything to get rid of her. It's a mad house that tries to be organized, but can't because half the people don't care at all, and the other half have spent so much time trying to care enough, that they have basically lost the will to live.
ProsGood Pay
ConsStress, lack of support, no trust, abandoned you immediately no matter how long you work there.

Absolutely horrible
Don’t work at the Romulus location, you’ll definitely regret it. If you love being away from your home life, being mandated extra days and hours then this is the place for you. Working long hours. Upper management will lie to you.
ProsLong hours, lots OT
ConsEverything
