Pros

My coworkers were nice and they do provide special lunches on holidays

Cons

I was asked to work in areas of the plant that didn't have enough workers and were not what I applied for, which annoyed me. There was no ac and during the summer, it felt as if I was on the verge of passing out from a heat stroke. The pay was not wroth it.

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.
