Pros

Workers are some of the most kindest people you will ever meet.

Cons

Management. Executives. And collared job positions are all in their high chairs. Production managers will pester you continuously to pick up the pace, in an extremely rude manner... Though you're going as fast as you possibly can. Machine operators are paid just over $13/hour in Ontario. Lowest machine operator wage I've ever seen. Average is about $15-$20 for a machine operator job in Canada. Men are not allowed to have earrings. But woman are. I had to take mine off every time. Although this would have been normal in the 1930s-1960s... It's considered sexism in the 21st century. The Farmers could benefit greatly by adapting to today's culture. 10 to 25+ years just to move up to a management position is not motivating at all.

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.
