Pros

There are not many pros about this job other than that it is a stable job and customers you deliver to are friendly.

Cons

Oh where to begin! This place is so disorganized. Higher up management doesn't care about employees. Some employees have been there 6 years with no raise. Employees not rewarded for the work that they do! Management expects so much for little pay! The turnover of employees is the highest I have EVER seen. They let good employees walk because they do not want to pay them. Certain routes have way more than other routes and management does not have the employees help each other out. So one guy may have 5 stops while another has 18. Trust me this is definitely no a place to consider working.

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
