Pros

Great opportunity for advancement. Action packed workplace. Cintas acquired my company, which was more of aquality/ customer oriented company. Cintas provides a lot of incentives, to make sure your money matches your performance. You can move up in the ranks here faster than any other company I know of.

Cons

As a manager, very little personal life time. Expect to work 60 hours a week in upper management. Cintas is much more growth-profit oriented. If you are not hitting your numbers, do not expect to have your position much longer. You have to constantly perform. There are not many long-term managers. The good ones are promotred and the bad ones are fired or demoted.

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.
