Great upward mobility

Sales manager
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

If you show initiative the sky is the limit. It's a job people the good ol days of being in Sales and not having to work are over. Stick to the proven sales process and you can make some serious MONEY. UniFirst does a great job of developing employees and setting them up to move upward in the company.

Cons

A lot of paper work and reporting. Some redundant reporting is expected in any sales organization. The first year used to suck but now there is now a ramp up bonus for the new sales reps which help them make some additional $$ while building the funnel.

First job out of college, left for other sales position and came back for the long term.

Sales manager
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

My office culture as a rep was amazing. We had 2 reps and the former sales manager go to President's Club. I know at least 5 people who have moved up in this company based on their work ethic and sales numbers. Competitive base coupled with competitive bonus structure. Admittedly when I left I didn’t see any long term outlook but that has changed greatly since coming back.

Cons

If you have questionable sales managers/location managers this job can be challenging. Every single sales rep hits a wall around 39-52 weeks and have to push through it.

Sales Representative burned out

Outside sales representative

Business Outlook

Pros

They have good benefits and compensation package. Overall good work atmosphere. Competitive products and prices. Position allows for the employee to work independently, and there is a lot of advancement opportunities.

Cons

It is a sales hunter position. There is A LOT of cold calling F2F and on the phone. Once a sale is made, customer managing, up selling, and service it is handed over to Route service people. Also, if a sales includes multiple facilities sales rep has to hand it over to a National rep. You have to lock customers into 3-5 year contracts.
