Pros

Decent pay for part time work. Can pick up more hours if desired. Great for parents, you can bring your kids on the bus with you, when kids are off so are you.

Cons

Office is very busy so difficult to get issues resolved, also because of that errors are often made in payroll, so have to keep a close eye on your hours. paperwork handed in disappears & doesn't have a designated place to go. Company seems more interested in profits. Routing program used is not conducive for bus routing
