      Pros

      Awesome sales training & managing your own territory is stressful but you learn a lot about time management

      Cons

      Micromanaged the entire time. If you are not entering data properly within an understandable time a manager will call you or email you questioning why. They say it is a "family" run business however the CEO & Executive board as seen as a big brother. Always used as a threat to do better. When reps struggle instead of looking for solutions they pile more nonsense on top and yoh start to sink. There is 0 product training so you look like a dummy 1/2 the time. Service department is horrible- so even if you do make a sale, they can't even follow up properly to ensure your customers you sold are satisfied. No one takes responsibility. Work here if you need the training but have the back up plan because this Corporation doesn't understand part of sales is database management.

      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.
