Pros

Good money if you're a performer.

Cons

Old boys club atmosphere in management. Nooooo diversity in sales upper management whatsoever. The glass ceiling is as thick as bulletproof glass. I can recommend this job only to my white male friends with aspirations of climbing the corporate ladder based upon their performance. I can't recommend with a straight face to my minority friends with the same aspirations because they WILL hit the glass ceiling eventually.

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.
