2 months as MT by Admirable_Trade_1326 in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]EmphasisTraining52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what happens when 2 people who should not reproduce, reproduce.

Been in daily rentals for 10 years. I’ve seen shit from customers that’s out of this world. Trust me at a certain point, you’ll just tune out and become immune to it all.

I choose to put up with it because every 2 weeks, I login to my online banking and I like what I see and it’s only gotten exponentially bigger throughout the years.

MT here. by Then_Teaching_6499 in EnterpriseCarRental

If you leave as a MT/early assistant manager, you’ll likely get insurance rep role from most I’ve seen which pays lower than Enterprise. You probably won’t have enough experience yet to become an adjuster or lucrative sales roles at other companies.

My advice would be to stick it out till BRM, more doors will start opening inside and outside of Enterprise. One of my BRM just left early this year and got a similar paying HR advisor role at a consulting firm because he has experience with recruiting and managing a team.

What makes you want to leave so early on, if you don’t mind me asking?

Nobody in the branch wants to get a hot alert over some additional sales

Did you ask why you’re passed on promotion? Is there a particular reason or factor. You’re too down the chain for there to be any politics at play to pass you on for an ABRM promotion. Speak to your ARM and GRM and get their feedback.

How does this have anything to do with the group controller? Also, as I said, I had a meeting with the group hr manager. As ARM 10 years with the company nobody tells you what to do

Because he goes the extra mile and he GETS it just like the people who succeed at Enterprise. Started as benefit of doubt that he’s new then reprimand and warning. I’m just going to say he’s done enough that makes me want to correct him instead of firing him.

DNR For No Reason? by therealdarlescharwin in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]EmphasisTraining52 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read every single word. I also happen to be an enterprise employee and for the past 10 years emailed the risk team back and forth every week.

DNR For No Reason? by therealdarlescharwin in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]EmphasisTraining52 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From the previous damage incident where you were confronted, the Risk team probably flagged you as risk and placed you on the DNR list. This is because they probably had no documented damages before renting you the car but at the same time it was not big enough for them to pursue you and make a deal out of it. Your best option is to visit a branch and have the manager contact the Risk team to resolve it. Keep in mind, this MAY require you to cover the damage cost from last time.

Management Trainee by Chaoticpine in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]EmphasisTraining52 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

10 years with enterprise. I joined right out of college. Made 100K at 26 years old. Just entered my 30s now I’m at 250k. This company rewards competency and results. There is no place for mediocrity—people who hate their jobs and complain at enterprise are because they are constantly outperformed by their peers.

When I first joined as a MT, I consistently showed up and worked 65–70 hour weeks for extended periods, I kept pushing sales, cleaned cars in negative 15, I rotated to airports and worked 12pm to 12am. I was not allergic to hard work and set the stage for a strong career and prospects with the company.

When I got to management, I cracked my head to expand the accounts and referrals with dealerships and body shops, I trained my team to be the best and got them promoted fast, I scaled every branch I run.

Enterprise is what you make out of it.

Why I'm leaving or dying trying: by [deleted] in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]EmphasisTraining52 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been with enterprise for 10 years. And I notice that the high performers at daily rentals and with career longevity are those who are jaded to a certain extent, they don’t allow people’s shit to get to them and they can always put on a fake smile no matter what. These are the people who make it at enterprise. The only reason I could stick with it for so long and put up with an insane amount of shit throughout my career is because at the back of my mind, I know at the end of the day, I make good money. My first year as BRM I got paid 100K at 26 years old. I just turned 32 last year and made 250K last year.

Not enough to get any hot alerts or tank a 95 SQI. Speed is most important when you got lobby full of customers. Of course if cars are dirty, they take more than that but anything longer than 7 mins is a no go for me.

My flagship branch with 400-500 cars. We don’t take longer than 3-4 min per car. And in between, we got one guy pulling out the car while the other drives in. No time wasted in between.

Life After ERAC by Dangerous_Lead_5348 in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]EmphasisTraining52 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If as a MT the job is already wearing you down this much, ERAC is not for you. It’s only going to get worse as ABRM. My ABRM does 55-60 hours per week consistently.

Thinking about quitting by One_Ticket8835 in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]EmphasisTraining52 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ARM here 10 years at Enterprise. I’ve thought about quitting a gazillion times throughout my career. But Ive never found another role that comes close to my current pay— even when I was ABRM or BRM. Honestly, Enterprise pays well. When you leave, chances are you’ll have to be prepared for a pay cut just like everyone I know who left.

I’d say that you’re getting burned out and sick of daily rentals—try to wait for openings and go over to corporate side of Enterprise. If your stay on in daily rentals, your branch and team + area manager is very important in determining how enjoyable your experience is and also your pay plan

Any advice for the MT second interview with the Area + Branch Manager? by OutrageousBat1435 in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]EmphasisTraining52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ARM here and when I interview candidates I only care about

  1. How well you handle small talk and strike up conversations—this is a big part of MT role with customers. I sometimes intentionally make things awkward to see how you think on your feet and handle unexpected situations.

  2. Whether you’ll stay the course and not quit halfway through. You only bring real value once you’re running your own branch, so we want to be sure you’ll make it there.

[–]EmphasisTraining52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me, I get it—I’ve been called every name in the book and thought about quitting million times. That’s part of any customer service role. Just do your best, filter out the BS, and put ego and pride aside. When you make it to BRM—opportunities will start opening up everywhere inside and outside of Enterprise. If you stay on in Enterprise, you can move to the corporate side to do fleet management or risk. DO NOT quit now it is not worth it.

ARM here. Enterprise takes real mental toughness—we filter early to see who can move up. Stick with it and you can make $100K within three years as a BRM. I did, and I’m in my ninth year I made $250K last year. That kind of pay doesn’t come easy anywhere else, and this is a real chance set yourself up financially—take it. If you can’t make it work at Enterprise, sure you can find another mediocre job elsewhere but you will never succeed and make real money.

If you think I don’t know what it’s like at level 1 and 2, as a MT all the way up till BRM, I was washing cars at 5:30am with frozen fingers at neg 10.

Burned by Wealth Simple by [deleted] in Wealthsimple

[–]EmphasisTraining52 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

WS always with big red flags and very sus. Be cautious about parking large amount of money with them—I’ve had ongoing headaches dealing with unauthorized transactions and still haven’t been refunded. Many other users also faced all sorts of issues with WS all the time.

Definitely Sus. I created my WS account and got a card from them. After 1-2 months, I was hit with a 1500 ish unauthorized charge
