Pros

Not stuck in an office all day. You can really make some good friends out on route, even find a great trustworthy mechanic. Starting pay isn't bad, benefits are great. Potential for a gravy route the longer you stay. 4 day work week.

Cons

Early morning meetings at 5:30am, 12 hour days, no overtime (it's called Premium Pay which doesn't mean 1.5X your normal rate), some managers don't manage anything so you do all the work on your route, raises are almost non-existent, some customers kill your potential for a nice bonus. Sometimes too many (account managers/sales) involved in your accounts.

Pros

4 day work week, healthcare benefits, weekly pay period, bonus incentives, profit sharing, uniforms and shoes provided, minimum technical skills needed to perform job, 49 day training period; paid vacations

Cons

60+ hour work week; insignificant group rate discount on healthcare benefits; murky, unexplained payroll system; break-even profit sharing due to poor reputation; employee uniforms are often lost indefinately through employee laundry service; vacations difficult to schedule due to understaffing and undertraining; 49 day training often ends up in new employee filling in for an injured employee without ever recieving proper training; super wasteful: lots of overlapping processes and unwarranted printing

Pros

Good to the employees, good to the customers. Most good hard working people will prosper with the company. Lazy people will not.

Cons

Nobody is perfect. Some days are better than others. Cintas will definatley give you more good days than bad. It's up to the person to make bad days, good ones.
