Pros

They kept us employed during the pandemic. Before the pandemic the place wasn't a bad place to work; low pressure, good commission plan and management like to cut loose late on a Friday. Not bad.

Cons

The office is a dump. Mouse droppings on your desk each morning. Toilets' that would leak all over your shoes when you flushed. It always smelled like mildew. During the pandemic, they put people on Performance Improvement Plans... they wanted us to sell more when every business we dealt with had no idea if they were going to stay in business. I was on the verge of being fired because I couldn't sell 5 year plans during a pandemic and an economic collapse.

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.
