Best Pay I've Seen On Delivery

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Get a work out and get paid for it. Be ready to run and ready to move, they mean freaky fast and that's from clock in to clock out. Tips are good if the neighborhood supports it which most office parks and office communities will. Lunch is the big run not dinner, so working days and going to evening class is an option, and the reverse is also true, but expect lower pay (less work in later hours).

Cons

Base pay is not great, you need the tips and expenses reimbursements. You will become and expert in cleaning, if the day is slow be ready to clean, and then clean, oh and when your done, there will be more maintenance and general beautification of the facility. Expect a lot of variance as the stores are franchised and not totally corporate controlled.

Tries too hard to be what it's not

Pros

The combination of tips and hourly pay made this a very lucrative delivery driver position. Some of the management was fun to be around.

Cons

Jimmy Johns is a prime example of a company that wants to be fun and engaging, and just ends up being annoying. It's success hinges on one fact: people like mayonnaise.

Pros

Fun place to work and great co-workers.

Cons

On slower nights the tips for delivery driving are a little less than a normal steady shift.
