Pros

You work with a team of young, kindhearted people. If you're happy with coasting at your job, you could easily fly under the radar.

Cons

This is a company that on the surface presents itself as the nice guy of the industry, but routinely underpays its employees and is wrought with internal politics, causing the company to stagnate. It cuts the rates of the drivers without a second thought, even though the livelihoods of actual people depend on those numbers they play around with. If you don't care about how the company performs and are just looking for a FT job, you could find a good home here. But if you're looking to make your mark on the world, this is not the place to do it.
