Pros

I've worked at UniFirst for over 5 years at 2 different locations as a Sales Rep. I can honestly say UniFirst is the best in our industry, having worked for a competitor previously. It's easy to sell a product and service when you truly believe in it, and UniFirst goes the extra mile to ensure their service goes above and beyond the rest. If you have the drive and determination to succeed and be a top performer, UniFirst will compensate you very well. There are endless opportunities for growth within both sales and operations, and ample training and tools for you to be successful.

Cons

The uniform industry is very competitive, so you need to have the drive to learn everything you can about our products and the competition. As a sales rep, you are given enough rope to hang yourself with if you are not able to effectively manage your time on the phone and in the field.

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.
