Pros

Pay is mid scale, vehicle is furnished in some cases, nice with high gas prices. Great retirement plan--but you will not be here to collect on it. Long hours don't bother me if the pay is commensurate--it was not.

Cons

If you are over 35, keep your resume handy. You will never prove it, but they don't want middle aged or experienced folks. No support from management for sales people. If you lose an account because management doubled price, it's you fault. This place is a revolving door--they actually brag that 85% of the people working for Cintas today, will not be here next year. All communication from management is one way--"Do it", "My way or the highway". the sales people who actually talk to the customers are not allowed to have an opinion. Whatever you do, do not get sick!

Pros

The Commission is great. You can make good money in this place.

Cons

While the pay is good, the culture here is not. It is incredibly restrictive. It is very much a “Do what I want you to do, how I want you to do it, and when I want you to do it” management style. They constantly remind you of how much money you can make there which gets annoying after a while. The service team and the sales team are constantly at odds. Not just Cintas, but the industry in general is very sleazy, much like a car dealership. They screw over their smaller customers with enormous year over year price increases. I know a particular salesperson who is having a lot of success their who has no problem lying to his customers, and never answering their calls when the problems come. As long as he keeps the deals coming Cintas does not care. Corporate greed is on full display at Cintas. The Management Development program for college graduates seems like a great opportunity. If you are a young college graduate and you get the opportunity, I would recommend that.
