Pros

Pay, benefits, straight forward career advancement

Cons

The training isn't great and doesn't do much to prepare you for the actual job. They're misleading about how many hours you'll work, though to a degree it seems to vary office to office. Was told repeatedly that as a CCA we're only guaranteed 5 hours every pay period, but I've yet to work less than about 60 hours a week. You are only guaranteed 1 day off every 2 weeks, but again it depends on the office and supervisor. Supposedly it gets better once you work long enough to make regular, but until then it's a bit rough.

Pros

Pay, random overtime, freedom to work by yourself. They dangle this carrot in front of you being a regular as they lie to you about how long it will take (actually 7-10 years and those years don't count towards retirement as you are "noncareer")

Cons

Worst job I've ever had. I tried honestly for a year to get through this job. They pay you based on evaluated time. If you take too long (and you will all the time) you don't get paid. You will be required to be on call and then told to stay for hours after your shift is done helping on another route most of the time in total darkness with no knowledge as to where to go. Supervisors are terrible.
