Pros

Probably only good for a resume

Cons

You can rack in less than minimum wage each week. Your income is 10% of whatever donations you get. So youre basically stealing from people thinking that theyre donating their full amount to a specific organization when in fact a portion goes to you. You can have near poor donations and the company will still keep you because they still profit off of you and don't pay you. This job is a great way of losing money.

Pros

Seems like it would be flexible

Cons

It is a low paying sales position. Company lures you in saying they work with D.A.R.E, list job as working at toy/food drive events, constantly talks about community outreach and nonprofit. D.A.R.E hires this company to raise funds, the company itself is not nonprofit. The pay is strictly based on commission of what you raise each week at a low rate. If you have a bad week you can end up making minimum wage or less as they don't have an hourly rate. The position is not working toy/food drives, it is standing in front of stores soliciting donations, I would not call that working events. You are expected to show up at their office for the first part of the day (unpaid for that since you aren't collection anything) and then drive your personal vehicle to wherever you'll be soliciting that day. They do not offer mileage or gas reimbursement either. On top of all of this, you are expected to dress in business professional attire. If you already have a full wardrobe of that, great, if not, which most people in this pay range won't, you're going to have to dump more money into a job that doesn't pay well at all. This might be a great job for someone who isn't looking for a serious career/doesn't have a lot of bills but it sells itself as much more than that.
