Pros

4 day work week, benefits, paycheck, HR online system. You will need the 3 days off to recover from the 4 day work week.

Cons

Long hours do not match pay. Old vehicles with no a/c!. Very Very labor intensive and dirty. Salaried SSR's have to use a time clock. Overtime pay is paid at less than regular time Time clock is used as a tool by management to justify an unrealistic schedule. The faster and more efficient you become the more they add on. Flawed system(lost garments, wrong garments and misc. charges) encourages and forces SSR's to be less than honest with customers on a daily basis.

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.
