Pros

you'll get paid every friday, good job for beginners, easy to switch accounts soon as you say something (also gets you a new driver leader).

Cons

typical cons. training sucks living in a truck with a random but makes sense. Driver leaders can have attitudes SOME days. Not bad people tho they just hate their job. say yes ma'am/sir then laugh at them when you hang up and turn the tunes back on. pay is not enough to be away from home for me. they sat average is $1300-$1500 weekely LMAOOO CAP. gross $1000avg if you avg 1500 you probly been here a while and youre somebodies buddy. Still give 4 stars because its honest work and they have a minimum $1000 a week (net) for 6 months. ok i digress
