Pros

Being able to control your own schedule

Cons

Earnings enhancements, like ride bonuses, streaks, and challenges have all but vanished and it is not profitable to drive without them. I only we orked part time at the end because those were the only profitable times to drive. Only about 1/3rd of riders tip because they think we receive the exorbitant fees they are charged. We used to make a higher percentage on average, but now average only about 25% of what LYFT charges riders.
