Pros

Great training program and team environment. Flexible Schedule

Cons

Base Pay is good if this is your first job. otherwise, it is not near enough. Which means you have to hustle and make up for it in Commission. The only problem with the Commission and bonus pay is that you not only have to sell the account but it must be serviced for 13 weeks in order for your incentives to go through. If your service department isn't good at retention then you won't get paid or you can get back charged. Also, the commission schedule and pay is questionable. There are alot of loopholes for the company to get out of paying you. They also Tax bonuses at a commission rate. There are alot of empty promises made in interview

Thank you for the feedback. It always saddens us whenever any UniFirst Team Partner feels that their experience in our organization is a negative one. Perhaps you can utilize our Open-Door Policy and have a conversation with your Regional Sales Management about your concerns.

Pros

Upper management genuinely cares about their team, and the hiring process is simple and straightforward. Base pay and the monthly stipend are both fair, and I appreciate the company's structure — questions get answered quickly, and you have dedicated team member support. I also like that the role is self-managing, with CDR handling pricing and deal structuring so you can focus on your own performance. Overall, this company really takes care of its employees.

Cons

The pay structure for this role is a bit unique — after a sale closes, the CDR earns commission for the first few months, and then commission transitions over to the drive team. It's certainly not a deal-breaker, just an observation, and I'm not knocking the company for it. All in all, I had a wonderful experience at UniFirst.
