Pros

Drivers are the ones that keep this company above water. Without their hard work and dedication, our sales team would not exist.

Cons

Horrible pay. Horrible Benefits. You can only submit a certain about of mileage a week regardless if you drove more. The Company or branch didn't want to have to pay. The office is a bunch of older scrappy women that no one was nice to in High School and seems to take it out on the sales Team because they don't like to do any work. You can hear them talk about you when you walk into the back room. Timesheets? I work more than 40 hours a week, and still, have to submit TIMESHEETS? Are we back in the 1960's? It seems to me like they don't know how to use any other software besides DOS. And it shows.

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.
