Pros
The people in general have a positive, upbeat attitude and approach situations with kindness and courtesy. UniFirst has consistently been ranked in upper echelon of companies and was ranked number one recently vs all competitors in Apparel Magazine (10 in best apparel company overall, behind companies such as Nike, 8, and ahead of the Gap, 12). The company values doing good work and their behavior reflects that. In my experience here, interaction with other UniFirst employees has been pleasant. Also for the work, it varies depending where you are, but while at times you are pushed, the company is managed well enough to give support to those overtaxed.
Cons
There is a disconnect between corporate and actual plant locations that can be hard to bridge, which can be frustrating. Actions tend to move at a slower pace than what feels necessary, leaving something to be desired
