Pros

Base Salary, some other small perks

Cons

Horrible work environment, Beyond micro managed, must enter call and note after every appointment and cold call, if internet goes down or an hour goes by with no entry they will call and ask what you have been doing, Phone block days, manager sits behind and listens to calls, buts in and bashes when he is not hearing the other side of the conversation,, to much negativity, nothing is ever good enough,,, saw out number one sales rep for 20 out of 24 months get sent home a day without pay because his number were on the decline for 3 weeks,,, wow, that's when I realized this was not for me, turned n my resignation..,, Life is to short to hate your job,,,

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.
