Pros

Corporate culture is not just on paper - it's meant to be used by every employee to drive success. Excellent policies that are available to everyone (no secrets there). Career paths are there for driven, ambitious employees.

Cons

No budget at all for anything. We had to do the job literally with nothing many times over. Cintas prides itself on its Spartan view of business which does contribute to its financial soundness, but it can be taken a little too far at times. Computer system outdated with no plans to upgrade. Pay very low compared to market. Corporate office in Ohio is a little out of touch with national locations - visits by corporate management would go a long way.

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.
