Pros

Ok pay for the times, but not for how hard I worked

Cons

The politics of changing management or distrust in management, especially when a new manager comes onboard who dislikes you and vice versa. Feelings of company/manager betrayal is leaving it's mark and many couriers are fearing for their job (just trying to wait out what they think are economical hard times and an employers market) or they are trying to find a way to transfer. It's not just the normal fast paced pressures of a courier life now, but crazy "I don't care about how hard you work" pressures now and therefore no team feeling or got-your-back at all, just on your own and can lose my job for any reason at any time.

Pros

Great flexibility with scheduling, which makes it incredibly easy to balance with school or other external commitments. The team environment is supportive, and the management generally respects your availability

Cons

The physical workload can be quite demanding and tiring, especially during peak seasons. Depending on the shift, communication across different teams can sometimes feel a bit unorganized.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
