Hard Work Pays off

Pros

As a former sales rep, as long as you work hard the sky is your limit. Entry level position that once you master, any sales job in the future would be cake! Great room for company growth.

Cons

Promoting within is amazing but don't promote the top sales people. They aren't always the best sales managers. Our solid performers need to be more focused on as our sales leaders.

Thank you for your feedback. We agree! The sky is the limit at UniFirst. We promote from within whenever possible, providing our UniFirst Family with many opportunities for advancement. We agree with you about having “assistant Sales Managers,” which is why we created the new Sales Manager Trainee Position and updated our internal Sales Career Path to include a Team Leader role. : )

Pros

- great training; - truly family culture; - support from management and all the "village" to help you become successful; - great benefits; - nice commission (if you work hard).

Cons

- level of micromanagement might be high but it depends on your manager personally; - CRM system takes a lot of time and for new people it takes sometimes a few months to get used to it.
