Pros

A fast and easy way to use your vehicle to earn extra cash as a runner. You can even get started that same day. It's a fairly simply process, pretty much, picking up goods and delivering them. Application works great when you aren't "DIS-FAVOR", continue reading for more details.

Cons

I started as a runner and eventually ended up as a runner support representative. As part of the runner support team, it was hard dealing with runners who where consistently late starting their shifts and even some who would plain out not report to their scheduled shifts, which runners have total control of. Instead of using a write-up system, like you normally would find in similar organizations, to proactively deal with this type of counter productive behaviors, we took it to another level. As a prior runner support team member I had the abilities to make any runner's life a LIVING HELL. The runners support team has access on the back end to manipulate many of the great features the application provides to runners to help them make money by doing their job as efficiently as possible. For example: we can change store phone numbers, locations of the nearest stores and even reroute orders to make it almost impossible for a runner to break even. We call this process, "DIS-FAVOR", I know it sounds cruel and wrong, but it is what we did to weed out the runners that we didn't want to work with. Some of the runners had it coming, but I admit some were great employees, who just didn't jive with our "runner image". We got rid of a lot of unattractive people like this. There were some instances that even weight, skin color and race was the primary reasons some runners were targeted. I was never ok with doing this, but it was how we did our jobs and there were a few others who felt the same and who eventually left the organization. I'm not trying to make excuses for my actions. I really just want to expose this activity in an effort to make it right. I'm truly sorry for my behavior. I regret not standing up for what I believed was right while I was employed there. I hope I can get retribution with this review. For all runners who I mistreated and "dis-favored" I sincerely apologize.

Pros

Frequent meals, company-wide events, relaxed atmosphere, diverse employee base.

Cons

The only place I've ever worked where mediocrity was encouraged. If you're one of the people who is good at your job you'll be expected to carry others on your back. I was constantly told that I couldn't use my accrued time-off due to the fact that my department was constantly understaffed (even though others used theirs - I'm not even sure that that's legal???). Never got to use the accrued time, they refused to pay it out once I resigned. Terrible experience, mid-level management is a joke and senior managers are un-bothered and constantly out of the office, on vacation, or in the office playing drinking games and ignoring everyone else. Don't expect a promotion unless you are actively brown nosing. If you're actually talented/smart don't waste your time. If you love cat GIFs, avoiding urgent matters, and being a social justice warrior while on the clock this might be the place for you. The pay is okay at best. Don't expect a raise or promotion for good performance. Lots of people with made-up job titles doing nothing, someone should really take a magnifying glass to this place.

Do not do this to yourself

Pros

It's growing and will probably be the name to beat. That's it. If you have literally nothing else to do with your life, head on over.

Cons

The management DOES NOT care about you. You are disposable. Regardless of your position in the company, your value is only what they can squeeze out of you until they discard your empty husk.
