Pros

Work 4 1/2 days a week and make 50-70,000 a year depending on how many stops you are given for the year. And every year they take stops or add stops to ur rout so u never know how much ur paychecks wil be. You have a base pay plus commission. And to get base pay you must work 40 hrs a week. Overtime is paid in Chinese overtime. So u make around $8 hr any hours over 40 so most people just leave when they get done.

Cons

You have to take a pay cut to move up In the company. You can only move up to supervisor from driver and u take a pay cut and you cannot move up further without a degree. Don’t matter what degree. I’ve seen a kid with a bachelors in bible study be brought right in and promoted over everyone else who has worked for a long time.
