Pros

Cintas has good benefits and reasonable pay for the work performed. Information about new products and services are shared in bi-weekly meetings. A good job for a younger person looking to start a career. The company is well run and operates on solid ideals.

Cons

Although the vacation time is good, vacation election is based on seniority and the newer people are often left with less than desirable options. There are several paid holidays but the weeks around the holidays are normally blacked out so they can't be taken off. Trainings are often boring and unimaginative. Pay is partial commission so any negative billings affect your pay; this is especially frustrating when dealing with national accounts who pay less than the average customer to begin with.

Pros

* Great track record of operational success * Focus on hourly "partners" from management * Culture

Cons

* Culture (There are great upsides, but also leave a lot of room for abuse) * No innovation or creativity allowed at local levels "Here's the playbook, now run it" * Safety initiatives will drive managers away because they have created a "Zero Defect" environment * GMs encouraged to do things that don't impact the top or bottom line, but look good in the peer group and win kudos from RBDs (Regional Business Directors)
