Pros
-decent pay rate once you're full time -great benefits
Cons
-outdated equipment -underperforming mechanics -unqualified management -some routes are way too big and hours are way too long -management makes sure to work you 60 hours a week no matter where you stand on the seniority board and always calling you on the company provided phone changing things instead of leaving someone alone to finish their route. The company is probably working the employees more hours so they don't have to hire more drivers. Management always cries that people call in sick, are on FMLA, or are on disability but don't understand that it happens for a reason and not just because people are lazy and when there are a surplus of drivers there isn't enough equipment so things just aren't adding up on the managements side. Drivers are tired and burned out all the time so safety is always put at risk and there are accidents and injuries almost every day. A few long weeks out of the year are okay but making it a normal thing is inhumane.
