Pros

Good corporate structure, lots of resources to help you succeed, looks after its employees, fast paced. Constantly looking for ways to add new products, brands, enhance existing products, etc. and do it very quickly. Great at adjusting to current market needs and getting products to the market quickly.

Cons

Very driven by their stock price and shareholders and making a profit over focusing on customers and improving their service model. Always innovating and adding new brands and products, but rarely doing anything to improve the actual service, which makes it hard to justify premium prices. Very old school and traditional culture. Uptight. Need sales people to be much more upfront with the contracts that customers are signing. Way too often customers have no idea just what they are signing up for when they sign their contract which can and does lead to obvious issues.

Pros

As a company... This company moves people that bring results up the ladder. They are proffessional and have a unique culture that pushes quality and urgency. Making raving fans of their customers is top priority. They truly strive to stand behind their product. Team mentality, if you need help reach out. Constantly striving to improve the system. Everyone works Hard! Fantastic people and managers. Fast growing industry. I honestly really enjoyed the people and culture.

Cons

Not all of these are cons necessarily cons, however they could be depending on perspective. They expect alot. I frequently recieved emails and phone calls after hours and on weekends. This isn't a bad thing if you just silence your phone. Results are the bottom line, if its not for you, you will figure it out soon enough. Very rapid environment. Not as much structure as alot of companies their size. You need to be able to adapt without warning and run with it. In all honesty, the biggest con is that not everyone they hire embodies the pros. They do their best to weed out the nonsense, however it's a big company so it exists. That goes for any company of this size. Its a shame that some locations get less attention than others, however, I have confidence that will change with time. I would work for Cintas again without thinking twice.

SSR terminated due to Covid-19

Pros

Good pay, get to take the van home.

Cons

Terminated due to Covid-19, yet they kept SSRs with less than 6 months experience. I was partner with several years experience and multiple achievers club/summit club, winner's circle- none of that mattered in the end though as they kept new SSRs with less than 6 months experience.
