Pros

The base salary and car package are decent. All your fuel is paid for if you get a fuel efficient car. You will definitely learn how to sell here at Cintas, and that can help you find an enjoyable career later...but be prepared to pay the price.

Cons

Nothing matters but your "numbers". All the managers are brainwashed with Cintas culture jargon, and they don't really make any real decisions or do anything to help the sales process. The micro-managing is out of control. Employees are treated like grade school children. It is an ok place to get some sales experience, but be prepared to "drink the kool-aid". Turnover in this market has been through the roof lately!

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.
