Pros

Great management who did everything in their power to help me succeed Very friendly office staff, and delivery guys Pay is very competitive for the area. Great bonus structure if you're able to get there.

Cons

Very tough industry Corporate Commission structure is very confusing at times, and the responsibilities of this position are not what I wanted out of a sales position. The CDR position, in my opinion, is more of a customer service position that has a sales quota. This position would be better for a person that has several years of experience working in a UniFirst service department role as you would only be selling to the locations active accounts.

Pros

-A decent stepping stone for those who are looking to get started with their sales career - experience could translate well into other sales opportunities. -Understanding and offered flexibility for family-related emergency.

Cons

-Unclear sales goals and overall structure. -A lot of back and forth in regards to the types of deals the Commissions Dept will approve - which creates delays which means you don’t get paid your $ on time. -Lacking company culture - no real focus on anything other then selling (the old school sales grind - out in the field doing in-person appts, regardless of pandemic). -Overall antiquated - you’re using outdated technology, processes, and techniques to get the job done. -Very little vacation time offered + it’s accrued. -High expectations for an entry-level job that offers low pay.
