Pros

My experience is in the corporate office, not in one of the franchises which are independently owned and operated. Senior management is highly ethical and makes decisions based on "what is the right thing to do" not just on what increases profit. The top executives are also franchise owners so they have perspective in the field as well as in the corporate office for better strategic decision making. The company has guiding committees in key areas made up of franchisees so that decisions are not made in a vacuum. Management is open with staff regarding the state of the business, financial health and strategic initiatives. Great culture, excellent benefits, bonus plans for all staff.

Cons

If you're willing to put in the extra time needed to complete projects and initiatives, the company is willing to let you work as many hours as you need/want. This can be a work/life balance detriment. Franchisees can be abusive to staff in communications.

Pros

- Can stack some good foundational capital right out of college - Training was okay, but could use a lot of improvement - Fridays were pretty nice looking back on it

Cons

- Sales scripts don’t sell in this day in age - Buyers are informed and intelligent, add value on the operational side since the pricing isn’t anything special - Unishippers is backed by private equity, that means you will be cold calling all day - These people do not care about you, you are just a number on a spreadsheet - 7% commission is fixed, go to a company that offers tiered commission so you actually get more for the money you make for the company - Management will not give you space to breathe, expect to be micromanaged regardless of performance - You will have to spend extra time after work servicing accounts - You are expected to do things outside of your moral compass, research the lawsuits and that will pretty much tell you everything (Goes back to being backed by private equity) - No company match - Will get sold a dream, not the actual reality - Very high turnover, churn and burn environment
