Pros

Free snacks, free catered (mediocre) lunches, health insurance nearly fully paid for when selecting certain options, company laptop, free "DashPass" membership.

Cons

* Poorly trained and inexperienced managers. * Chaotic and crammed building where everyone is crammed, you'll be lucky if you have enough room to stretch out your arms full length. Feels like a standard call center. * This role "Partner Manager" is nothing but you managing a book of business of clients who (1) don't want to talk to you, (2) many who don't even speak English or know who you are or why you are calling them, and (3) your goal is NOT ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT, as your KPIs as based on 2 things: how many accounts can you increase the % commission partnership on (ex: moving a restaurant from 20% to 30% commission share) and how many people can you sell on marketing. I've worked in multiple Account Management roles, this is NOT an Account Management role, as you are goaled solely on your ability to sell. Expect a standard sales environment. Expect dial goals and sales metrics to meet. And like a standard sales environment, expect no mercy when you begin to fall behind on your goals.

Pros

You make tips and get to shop at a lot of stores. More areas are open for delivery. You don't go far and have specific zones, like cities, you stay in usually. They give you a special tier of being a Dasher when you're doing the best deliveries, they're called tiers from silver to gold to platinum. Platinum gives you the dash now button allowing you to dash whenever.

Cons

Sometimes the delivery will get marked as if you didn't deliver the item and it gets put on you. There's sometimes drastic waits between orders. The restaurant may be closed or out of the thing the customer ordered. You can't decline order or else the acceptance rating goes down and you'll lose the certain requirements to be a higher tier driver.
