Pros

Zilch - nothing at all

Cons

If I could add red warning flash lights to this comment I would - beware, beware, beware!!! If anything seems too good to be true, if something doesn't add up, or if something 1 single red flag is being raised - run for your life!!! I mean that. Any positive comments about this company are placed by HR as PR work only. Everybody hates working for this company and anybody who says they do is a phoney, fraud & a hypocrite. You will hate your life, you will hate your job, this is anything but a career, you will never in your professional or personal life ever feel so mistreated, used, overworked, underpaid, gossiped about, backstabbed, etc... and there isn't a single person you can go to for any support or assistance. If you do ever go to anybody for anything they will twist and distort it. You will never live through so much backstabbing, lying, manipulation. You will be pushed and provoked, you will have work thrown at you literally, and you will be mocked and ridiculed. If anybody reading this thinks this is an individual having a bad day, not in the least, just somebody who's lived it and it cautioning anybody who is needing and wanting a job and will do just about anything to get one, this is not it! If you have any self worth, dignity or respect you will not apply for or accept a job at this godforsaken place. Just be careful and take a good look around your surroundings and who is saying what when you go into this place. You can't say you weren't warned!

Pros

Interview process was night and day compared to prior location I had interviewed with. Great benefits, solid support, and an awesome culture. Leadership leads by example, setting the tone from the top (GM). Can't speak for other location, but I was fortunate to land at one of the best. No micromanagement! Professionalism and integrity are a must. Constant promotions.

Cons

No real downsides except for the Florida heat, with only a bit of corporate politics but nothing too crazy.

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.
