Pros

Great pay and benefits, flexible work locatios

Cons

The company culture feels toxic, stemming from the top leadership down. Leaders emphasize blind compliance over collaboration, frequently shifting priorities without explanation while expecting full acceptance. Within my business line, leadership fostered a competitive dynamic where teams were pitted against each other, prioritizing internal battles for resources and funding over collective success. This environment made it difficult to focus on doing great work or achieving the best results for the business. Feedback from my manager felt inconsistent and unpredictable, often varying with their mood, which created constant stress and uncertainty about what each day would bring. Overall, it was a difficult and demoralizing experience.

Pros

You make tips and get to shop at a lot of stores. More areas are open for delivery. You don't go far and have specific zones, like cities, you stay in usually. They give you a special tier of being a Dasher when you're doing the best deliveries, they're called tiers from silver to gold to platinum. Platinum gives you the dash now button allowing you to dash whenever.

Cons

Sometimes the delivery will get marked as if you didn't deliver the item and it gets put on you. There's sometimes drastic waits between orders. The restaurant may be closed or out of the thing the customer ordered. You can't decline order or else the acceptance rating goes down and you'll lose the certain requirements to be a higher tier driver.
