“Cintas has a robust onboarding program, as well as comprehensive ongoing training and development for our entire sales organization. This sets employee-partners in our sales organization up for successful careers and unlimited career opportunities throughout our entire company. Many of our company’s top executives and leaders have risen through the company after successful sales and sales-leadership careers, and they set outstanding examples of what’s possible for Cintas sales professionals,” Hazen added.

Of Cintas’ sales program, Selling Power noted: “Cintas continuously strives to have the most highly trained, professional, and diverse sales organization in North America while providing an environment where open, honest communication and feedback are welcomed.”

To assemble this year’s 50 Best list, Selling Power’s research team created an updated application where they gathered detailed data across several main categories: compensation, benefits, sales-rep onboarding, sales training, sales enablement, DEI (within the sales force and sales management levels) and the impact of current economic conditions on the sales organization.

Cintas was one of four companies honored by Selling Power for DEI in Sales. Selling Power noted the recognition was created to recognize “companies that are committed to fostering more diverse and inclusive sales organizations. This program will not only help show more companies the tangible benefits of a more diverse and inclusive salesforce, but will also help guide salespeople who are looking for a most positive work environment.”

To identify its honorees for DEI in Sales–2023, Selling Power looked at companies’ sales organization culture and at how companies were promoting DEI in recruiting, retention and advancement.
