Pros

You are technically your own boss

Cons

They don't provide drivers with enough work. They pay peanuts You cant plan ahead because shifts are randomly offered to you as little as an hour before work. The shifts you are offered are so limited you will want to accept as many as possible. They give you food delivery shifts even after you signed up to courier parcels and dont provide you with a heat bag. In turn this results in restaurant owners moaning and talking down to you and your car stinking of curry

Pros

Lots of routes available to drive using your own vehicle, both in early morning and in the evenings. Get paid the same day that you drive. Routes are usually pretty tight so you're not doing a lot of long distances between stops.

Cons

Low pay for the amount of miles you'll have to drive. You may average about 20-25 an hour, depending on how long of a block you sign up for. But you'll end up spending at least 1.5 hours pay to put back into your gas tank. You can't choose the area you want to drive in, it's chosen randomly for you. So you could be clear across five counties from the starting point.
