Employee Testimonials

What girl grows up wanting to rent construction equipment? After 15 years, I've been in many roles, and I can confidently say I'm very happy and love my job. I love working at H&E because it is a personal company where leaders are eager to help.

Things I enjoy most with H&E are the relationships I build with our customers. They value you and your input, and they know you have their best interest at heart and will help them. It really sets us apart and makes us a partner for them and their business.

As I continued to grow within the company, I had the opportunity to take on an outside sales position. It was a very easy process because of what I learned. I had a base of customers I could call on and a whole bunch of experience that enabled me.

Every day is different. That's one of the things that really drew me in. It keeps it exciting. You never get stuck doing the same monotonous thing day in and day out. It keeps you motivated, and you never know what's around the next corner.

I enjoy coming to work. I enjoy getting up in the morning and being here. I enjoy working with my customer base. It's left me with a free opportunity to grow this like it's my own business. I enjoy what I do.

I would have never thought in a million years me applying as a yard worker would turn into me becoming a territory manager. I feel so safe working with H&E Equipment Services...my possibilities are endless.

I was a mechanic in the military. When I got out, I enjoyed doing mechanic work, so I continued in the field. After 25 years in the business, I retired. But five months later, I decided it was time to go back to work. I love what I do and am proud to be H&E.

Training has prepared me...I am able to be a better Service Manager and train my guys as a result. Also, H&E is family oriented. They care about your well-being, and it shows in the way that they treat you. It makes you feel appreciated as an employee.

What's satisfying about my job is when you get to help a customer when he needs to get something up and going in a hurry. You can step back and take the training you've had and figure out the problem and get him up and going so he is back, productive.

I've been with the company for over 45 years. We've always had great people here. They put their heart into what they do, and they want to make sure they do it right. I really appreciate working with the kind of quality people that we have here.

The culture that I have found here at H&E is phenomenal. Safety-oriented, mission-driven, family-oriented. All that just clicked, and I said, 'Yes, I want to be a part of that.' That is what sold me here at H&E. We are a tight-knit group...family.

What I feel most rewarding about my position is when I can truly help a sales representative achieve the goal they are working towards. My aspirations for our team are to come together, work cohesively, and work better as a team.

At the end of the day, the relationships have really gotten us to the point where we are today with our earthmoving business. With that comes trust and good business. Selling equipment is not that hard…it's relationships.

We all collaborate, and we all work together. Every employee's opinion matters, and I feel like I have a voice. There hasn't been a day that I didn't want to get up out of the bed and come to work. It has really been so much fun and a chance to learn a lot.

The opportunities that I've had in my career here with H&E have been amazing! When you take a young guy from Montana that had no experience in the equipment business, and to see where I have been able to go, I think is a testament to H&E.

One of the great things about H&E is the family feel. You develop solid relationships with all employees…strengthening those relationships, learning more about each individual, and becoming a stronger team so that we can better serve our customers.

I learned a tremendous amount about management and our industry, and I was able to teach a lot. As a Branch Manager in a leadership role, my job is really to help my people complete their job tasks and take any type of issues or problems away.

When they hired me, I was so dumbfounded that they took an interest in me and were going to give me a shot. At that point, I decided one thing I could do to give back was work hard and do my best each and every day…so that's what I did.

Customer Service isn't just about delivery. It's also about before and after: calling the customer beforehand to make sure you are delivering exactly what they need; calling the customer after to make sure everything is right.

When I went through cancer and the flood, they were so with me. The minute I could get into my house, they got there and helped me. That's a major benefit when you have your company backing you up on any disaster. H&E has always been there.
