Pros

team support is very good. Your leaders are responsive and helpful. The EV9’s are a great automobile and a pleasure to drive. The rise come in one after another and the day goes by fast and is fun. I enjoy meeting my writers and have had some great conversations with them.

Cons

The program on the phone that gives directions needs tweaking. It often shows on the screen the wrong direction. When you should turn left, it shows you to turn right. It’s not responsive enough. Also, it is inaccurate on traffic signals and stop signs. Often it give us the wrong street name too. It makes driving difficult. One other thing, sometimes the location of the pick up is on the wrong side of the street. Getting the math program to work better would make us more efficient.

Pros

Turn over is high so there's always fresh faces.

Cons

Turn over is high so you will probably be next. # months max for most people. You will never ever have consistent schedule. You will never get more than 7.5 hours scheduled, subtract the 30 min lunch and that's 7 hours total.
