Pros

Maybe the pay rate is good, but the stress is by far NOT worth it. But that's only my opinion.

Cons

I don't really know where to start...between the school personnel not helping and the parents using racism against the drivers and even threatening you...oh! And the management at the company not backing up it's drivers...I could go on for days...
