Pros

You can get good training and experience to leave the company and work for a company that values the people that actually bring in revenue

Cons

-The definition of micromanagement (Their CRM system is used to track employees) -0 support from upper management. They put on a show to make you feel valued but at the drop of a hat will send you packing -unrealistic bonus structure, good luck hitting ANY sales bonuses. -they are stuck in the past overall. Have no idea how to cater to a younger generation. The regional managers and VPs make all the big money and squeeze everything they can out of the salespeople and sales managers.

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.
