Pros

You are always learning because you're constantly surrounded by people that are smarter than you in one field or another. Externally, you're meeting with executives from the top food retailers in the country. It's exciting to be part of a hyper growth company and also reassuring to see similar growth in the overall e-commerce grocery space.

Cons

The company is still figuring out it's identity and ironing out long term goals. This is somewhat to be expected with such a young company but can be a con for those that require firm structure.

Pros

Flexible schedule and the ability to work when I need to. It can be useful as side income, especially if you need something that fits around school, job searching, or other responsibilities.

Cons

Pay can be inconsistent, and it often depends heavily on order availability, tips, distance, and customer demand. Some days are worth it, while other days do not feel worth the time, gas, or wear on the car.
