Pros

The company has expanded and bought several other rental companies making it easier to choose a location to transfer if you so desire. Sunbelt has spent a great deal of money in the last 3 years on new equipment enabling us to stay competitive in the equipment rental market. Sunbelt Rentals is also very committed to safety in the work place and also safety with our customers on their jobs.

Cons

Poor communication, from the managment down. Lack of commitment from management to better the communications from employee to employee and branch to branch. Even though this is a large company, over 6000 employees all working for Sunbelt Rentals,it seems that alot of the time each store is working for itself and not as a whole! not willing to help out others.

Pros

company truck, company gas, expense account

Cons

Coercive Non-Competes: Instead of retaining talent through fair pay and competent leadership, management uses overreaching non-compete agreements to trap their workforce. Seeing colleagues like Zane bogged down by these heavy-handed tactics shows a fundamental lack of respect for employees' career mobility. Pervasive Micromanagement: Leadership insists on controlling minor details, bottlenecking progress and alienating competent employees. The Sunk Cost Fallacy: Instead of learning from mistakes, senior leaders consistently double down on poor decisions, driven by an unwillingness to admit fault. The Peter Principle in Action: The executive team suffers from an overinflated sense of their own acumen, which barely masks a fundamental lack of competence. People have clearly been promoted to their level of incompetence.
