Pros

Great for new sales reps to learn how to sell business to business, good solid work for route drivers, good products, good benefits, good money if at quota

Cons

Toxic culture in many locations now (constant fear for job loss), little leadership across company, almost no diversity in managment, slow to implement anything new, does not value education

If you are a sales rep it is more important that you do your job their way than reach goal any other way. It is restrictive for those reps who have talent and do not need to rely on antiquated sales tactics.

Advice to Senior Management

With all upper management being aging white males with the exact same work experience no fresh ideas enter the company. All fresh ideas from the lower ranks in the company are squashed. It is time the leadership of UniFirst took a proactive aproach to encouraging knowledge and innovation from its employees and embracing the change that comes from it.
