Pros

The training is excellent although not all that applicable to the day to day of the job. Fun team horizontally but not vertically. Very fake

Cons

- Below par product - Below par service - Antiquated Company in an antiquated industry - Crazy high turnover due to people quitting - Very unethical strategies in most departments - You'll feel like a liar the entire time - Crazy level of micromanagement - treated like a school child - openly advertise that you should work there for a while and go somewhere else - Overall very terrible

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.
