Pros

There are lots of opportunities to move into other positions. Communicate with Management regarding your goals. Very physical job, so be prepared. Company is very supportive at the local level. They will work with you to help you meet your goals. National company footprint enables you to move to other locations; positions. Creating leads for sales, business development and other divisions offers nice payouts. Cintas does have excellent profit sharing and 401k matching.

Cons

At the Corp level you are just a number. Micromanaged at all levels. Commissions were drastically cut two years ago. Working harder for the same amount of money. Many products offer so little commission but the tag line is "these sales help you hit your goals" but your not getting paid for the work. Getting harder every year to hit your goals because of higher quotas, Customers cutting back on product or cancelling due to high invoices also creates hardships. These numbers stay in your quota.

Pros

The Commission is great. You can make good money in this place.

Cons

While the pay is good, the culture here is not. It is incredibly restrictive. It is very much a “Do what I want you to do, how I want you to do it, and when I want you to do it” management style. They constantly remind you of how much money you can make there which gets annoying after a while. The service team and the sales team are constantly at odds. Not just Cintas, but the industry in general is very sleazy, much like a car dealership. They screw over their smaller customers with enormous year over year price increases. I know a particular salesperson who is having a lot of success their who has no problem lying to his customers, and never answering their calls when the problems come. As long as he keeps the deals coming Cintas does not care. Corporate greed is on full display at Cintas. The Management Development program for college graduates seems like a great opportunity. If you are a young college graduate and you get the opportunity, I would recommend that.
