Pros

Fun job, flexible and great for self motivated workers. Pay for couriers is sweet and the app looks/runs amazing. No micro managing and the chance to come up with fun and creative solutions to logistical problems! Great for digging in and investing time as a worker in a potentially amazing new branch of the service industry. Fast growing, and incredibly room for moving up. Contrary to popular belief, management is just fine. Great people with great ideas, there just happens to be a butt ton of issues that keep coming up. *cough* POSTMATES *cough*

Cons

Its new, there will be issues. Ride along with the first waves of the storm and you will be gifted with knowledge and security the job can afford. Pay days or incredibly volatile, meaning expect to have your pay either be incorrect or not on time for the first couple pay days. It happens, new company, new workers, new areas, new market, stuff happens. Hours are dependent of your customer base. Apparently slow season means job security falls and the potential to have to work a supplemental job is becoming a real issue. Pros heavily out weigh the cons.

Cons

-Getting paid (they can't seem to figure this out) -Mentions on paycheck "as always tips are included on your paycheck" but you will never actually get paid your tips (seriously it's so sketchy) -The company functions off of company debit cards (PEX-Cards) which tend to fail at the register leaving you to foot the bill, and do not expect a company refund for at least 2 weeks -Management needs to be managed, most managers have never worked as Tapingo couriers and often have outlandish expectations -Tapingo does not partner with most restraunts leaving restraunt management irritated when they get swamped with to-go orders, especially when Tapingo is running specials -Food pricing is most-of-the-time inaccurate -Provided 1 sick day in 7 month period -Provided 0 breaks when working 8 hr shifts -Couriers tend to wait to pick up orders until the last possible minute, causing a game of chicken over who pick up which order -Tapingo support WILL spam your phone while working making it impossible to use your GPS, let alone your phone as a whole -Getting harrased by rude customers -Sketchy delivery locations -Employees fight for shifts -Promised "special pay" during events and then never receive the "extra pay" -Everything is communicated through Slack -The delivery app works a qtr of the time
