Decent part time work

Driver

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You get paid per hour, not trip. Cars are usually new and clean. Most customers are nice. Fair amount of downtime between trips is common (depends on shift). Offers health insurance.

Cons

Pay is low, unless you work holidays, OT, or certain shifts. Not as flexible as advertised. They expect you to clean the car in an unreasonable amount of time. Customers cant tip on app.

Good company but could be better

Driver

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Responsible for yourself and personal integrity (be listening for when rides are assigned — don’t wander off to do shopping or errands for yourself. You are at work) Pretty set schedule with options for overtime Paid better than Uber and Lyft with premium hourly pay for evening hours (however, being paid more than Uber is a very low bar)

Cons

The pay could be so much higher for what we do. We serve high-end clients with money to spend. Alto expects certain customer service to be given but very little of that is reflected in pay for drivers. Being expected to go above and beyond for the company and it’s rep. when you make as much as someone who works in fast food is difficult to understand.
