Pros

You get fifty percent off dough products 💁‍♂️

Cons

As a driver you'd better hope the Pizza comes out quick. Because your tips is really the only bit of money you're gonna see... you get paid like a server so $3.75/hour+tip, and that's not compensating you for your gas ( so technically less than a server)... to piggyback off of the one pro, $4 a soda as an employee or customer.
