Bad time for newspapers, but a good place to work - Library Manager Lancaster Newspapers Employee Review

- Great group of people, welcoming and positive environment. - Smaller staff allows for improved communication, flexibility.

The industry is dying, the company could be doing better financially.

Easy job to do. Fun job to do. Other drivers are very nice and easy to get along with.

Newspaper charges the delivery driver a bunch of fees. One fee is…If they quit before a year is up then they get charged $200.00. If they quit after a year, and do not give a month notice then they get charged $200.00. If a customer says they didn’t get a paper, and you can’t prove that it wasn’t stolen then you get charged $1.00 for each paper. If you deliver to a home that is on vacation you get charged $5.00 for each paper. For every $10. in tips they keep about $9.85. They tell the customer that the driver gets all of their tips. This company owners should be in jail. On Wednesday, and Sunday you are lucky if you make minimum wage because of the gas, and time for extra homes that you have to deliver to. Also, they pay about a $1.00 in gas money for every $10.00 you pay. No benefits. Part time, but can disrupt your day because you have to be done before 6 AM so you have to get in early (like 1am 5am )depending on how big your route is. So if you get in at 1am , you are going to be tired the rest of the day.
