Pros

The pay is pretty good for menial labor, it starts off at 15$ per hour, and they sometimes offer up to 5$ extra per hour for certain shifts and bonuses for top performers, but extra pay is inconsistent. The job itself isn't very stressful, management is fairly hands off, there's a variety of tasks to do which helps with boredom a little bit. Applying to the job is dead easy, no interviews or references required and it's all online. Hours are very flexible.

Cons

Here's the flip side of the coin: hours are too flexible. All of the associates select which shifts they want to work through an app, and there's often more demand for shifts than are available, so the number of hours you get from week to week can vary. The inconsistency can make this an unreliable source of primary income, but it's great as a second job. Also, their system tracks how many tasks you do per hour through your scanner, so you can't be off task for too long. It's not hard to hit performance targets so as long as you don't seriously slack off you won't hear anything from management, but the looming threat that your every move is being monitored is annoying and a little creepy.

Pros

Get to pick your own blocks

Cons

Driver support is not helpful at all. You call with a question or an issue and they talk over you and say you can call back if you want. They are not friendly they are rude and no help at all. They over talk you and dont listen to the issue. Also the workers at the station are just as rude. I had a question and one worker told me didnt you train on your phone for that. I was like are you serious you cant answer my question and he walked away. Granted it was my fisrt time at that particular work station.
