Pros

Helping people get to their destinations safely was a pro to working at First Student.

Cons

The average day was contacting drivers to help them get their commercial learners permit. The hard part was doing the Job of 5. Late pay and told happy holidays when I reported it. Layoffs and consolidating 3 positions into one.

Pros

The pay for driving is good, however, "driving is only part of the job description. May be well compensated for contracted substitute driver in other locations

Cons

Although there are rules to establish safe, orderly environments for riders and drivers, they are not enforced, and appear symbolic and subjective. Drivers have to bow to whomever decides how it will be handled instead of what the actual rules dictate, creating unnecessary chaos. There also appears to be a good amount of favoritism at this location and company rules and regulations are rarely enforced across the board, resulting in employees doing as they please with little to no repercussions.
