Amazing Company!

Pros

While there is a lot to learn, the initial (and ongoing) training is extensive. In addition, the tremendous support I've received is truly something most companies should strive for! I originally thought they had a "rule" that when you notice someone new, you should go out of your way to make them feel welcome. After being here for some time, I've discovered there is no "rule", people are genuinely excited for you to be a part of the team and have proven to be some of the most kind people I have ever meet. There is truly a "family" feel, which makes sense, as eventhough they are a national company, they are still family owned. Bonuses are attainable and annual "President's Club" trips are something to strive for.

Cons

In sales, it requires a "hunter" mentality. Not a sales job for people who wait for leads or are simply "order takers." If you are, you will not last long.

Pros

I have been with UniFirst for well over a year now. The management is excellent. All departments work really hard for each other and the customers. If you are doing your job and making sales the money is great!

Cons

The only con I can think of is that UniFirst doesn't offer a company car, so you will put some serious wear and tear on the car.

Pros

Flexibility; commission on every deal; sales training

Cons

Forced phone blocking days required twice a week. This gets very exhausting as you always have to provide all your own leads this way. A lot of cold calling required and this can burn you out.
