Pros

UniFirst is a family oriented company that cares about it's employees. Their services are easy to sell with due to the long tenure and quality of service provided by their service teams. The company has an excellent training program that focuses on helping not selling. I never felt like I was taking advantage of a prospect, but that I was actually making a difference for their business. Great opportunity for advancement especially if you have a willingness to relocate.

Cons

The hours are long if you are doing your job right, but it is all reflected in your paycheck. The first year is very tough and you will be tested, but if you can make it through you will have a solid career. This is a fleet service company so only the larger holidays are recognized and there is little vacation time.

Pros

Upper management genuinely cares about their team, and the hiring process is simple and straightforward. Base pay and the monthly stipend are both fair, and I appreciate the company's structure — questions get answered quickly, and you have dedicated team member support. I also like that the role is self-managing, with CDR handling pricing and deal structuring so you can focus on your own performance. Overall, this company really takes care of its employees.

Cons

The pay structure for this role is a bit unique — after a sale closes, the CDR earns commission for the first few months, and then commission transitions over to the drive team. It's certainly not a deal-breaker, just an observation, and I'm not knocking the company for it. All in all, I had a wonderful experience at UniFirst.
