The culture in Sales at this company is to cram their products down their customers' throats. They say they want a consultative approach, but that is a hoax. Sell Sell Sell or get fired! Good job for a year but after that they will fire you.

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you found your co-workers to be friendly and took advantage of our many benefits.
We do encourage our Salespeople to take a consultative approach and if you buy-in to our proven process it does yield results. In any Sales Position there are quotas to be met and unfortunately if standards are not being upheld and improvements are not being made, it might not be the best fit for some.
We agree that negative reinforcement is not the way to go, which is why we look for Managers that exhibit strong leadership and motivational skills.
We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
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.
