Pros

The pay was great, and management always strived to keep you with the company no matter what. The way you feel about the company always mattered by how you were treated by your Store Manager. I am lucky enough to have a Store Manager that always puts his employees first, and made sure we were okay. Whether it be from mental stress or physical stress, my store manager always made it right.

Cons

Work/Life balance can seem somewhat non-existent. Your life is dedicated to RAC. I wouldn't mind it if I didn't have children, but instead, you find yourself so drained from the long shifts that you force yourself to stay motivated and fun for the same family your working to support.

Pros

The benefits can be decent, there are growth opportunities, and if you’re lucky, you work with a great team.

Cons

Poor management on many levels. From a store level, extending to corporate, the “leadership” needs work on their people skills. People are only capable of handling so much, and the lack of support from upper management makes it harder to work day to day. Additionally, the goalpost is always moving. If you manage to exceed their expectations, completing those same goals will no longer be good enough. The lack of support when it comes to customer abuse is embarrassing. We’re in 2026 and we should want to support the teams that are keeping the company running. Corporate is out of touch with reality. Anyone making over 6 figures a year no longer view customers as people, but as numbers. It doesn’t matter what horrid stories you hear on a daily basis, they are expected to bend to standards that shouldn’t exist anymore.
