Pros

Great people at the location. Boundless opportunities for advancement because turnover is so high. Great sales training. If your fortunate enough to have a good Location Manager, you have a chance.

Cons

1. MICROMANAGEMENT!!! 2. The rules of corporate America do not apply to upper management levels. If you're part of the 'good ol' boy network' - you're GOLDEN!!! 3. If too many people go to President's Club, they change the rules the following year to decrease the number of participants to save $$$.

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.
