Pros

You will get good experience in business to business sales. There training is self study but taken seriously will help develop a good foundation for a career in sales. It's better than being unemployed

Cons

Lowest pay in the industry. To small of areas to keep the $110 dollar weekly average. Long sales cycles dealing with 60 month contracts. After one year ridiculous sales expectations are put on you and then you will be let go.

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.
