Pros

Benefits are great, 4 day workweek, decent salary.

Cons

Very heavy days with minimal support. This is a very supply chain reliant business and with todays issues there will be a lot of shortages and angry customers that you get to deal with at no fault of your own, and yes it will likely affect your bonus… Sales are constantly overselling accounts, and within a month the account will quit the un-needed product off and it’ll count against your bonus. Whenever you need to maintenance accounts administratively, you have to fill out paper forms and management almost always ignores them. Ultimately I wound up leaving because there is just no career advancement here. Sure they’ll tell you about all of the other departments cintas has to make you think that this company has a role for everyone, but in reality most of the jobs all pay the same (mid 50s) and I’ve had fantastic supervisors that have been stuck in there positions trying to move up for the better part of 10 years. If you have any ambitions, I don’t recommend Cintas.

Pros

Interview process was night and day compared to prior location I had interviewed with. Great benefits, solid support, and an awesome culture. Leadership leads by example, setting the tone from the top (GM). Can't speak for other location, but I was fortunate to land at one of the best. No micromanagement! Professionalism and integrity are a must. Constant promotions.

Cons

No real downsides except for the Florida heat, with only a bit of corporate politics but nothing too crazy.

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.
