Pros

Career advancement opportunities, free uniforms, good parking, well lit restrooms, big break room, never run out out of toilet paper.

Cons

I don't know where to start really. Pay plan really sucks, they want this role to pretty much reflect a SM role in many ways. There's no car package and you use your own car a lot(visiting customers, delivering short product), they don't pay for any phone service and your constantly communicating(SSRs, the office, SM's, customers, reading emails ) with your phone. If you have to run a route for an extended amount of time (2-3 months) your home/work life balance really suffers because you're doing two jobs and putting in 50+ hrs a week. As much as they worry about SSRs hours, nothing is ever said or any member of management cares about how many hours you put in. And don't complain or you'll be labeled as one and non promotable.

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.
