Pros

More often than not the people who work for Cintas are very friendly, down to earth and a joy to be around. As an MT you get to work in varying aspects of the companies business model which is great for professional development in the short term. Lots of opp to travel across Canada and the USA as you complete the graduate program. The training available at the company, especially as an MT is of high quality and frequency.

Cons

God..where to start. Work life balance is simply non-existent. The customer always comes before the employee even when an employee has been working a 12 hour day. As a graduate program expecting to attract top talent the promises made come no where near close to matching reality. Expect to be getting your hands very dirty, tons of manual work, long hours, pointless and rather tedious tasks are the absolute norm. Probably wasn't a week that went by where I didn't wonder what on earth was I doing there. Very poor development plans for employees. Management is pretty hopeless in terms of motivating teams and building a fun consistent environment. The absolute worst however is the fact that hardly ever will a customer receive their requested products in full..and I really mean hardly ever!! If your an A to B+ candidate do not waste your time here. Its good as a stepping stone to somewhere better but that's about it. If your a C player or below knock yourself out!

Pros

Decent starting pay as well as great benefits package. There seems to be a ton of advancement all around.

Cons

Work a ton of hours including some second shift work and weekends with no compensation. Some of the work takes place in productions which is a pretty dirty job. If there is shortages as far as workers in the plant you will most likely be thrown into them
