Pros

Great Resume builder, you get a chance to work in different area of the company and learn about all of it. Great benefits these are what they use to attract lower level production employees and it works because they are good. Your job is always changing, there wasn't a role that I was ever bored in.

Cons

Pay isn't anything special, and I feel like management was always trying to pay you less for more work. If you don't have a good GM like any other place you won't have a good management experience. They work you and expect you to drink the kool aid without any loyalty to you. They jam a price increase down their customers throats every year, and really screw the little guy, it's painfull to watch/do.

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.
