Pros

Co workers (not managers), benefits

Cons

Not having a say about anything when your the driver. They will make excuses and criticize you about everything and make it your fault every time. Estar will be the downfall for this company. You basically don't have a day off seeing that they will make you work it when they need you to last minute, even if you have plans get ready to miss all your kids birthdays or anything you have going on in your personal life. You will also have a camera in your face all day harping on you. Managers are so brainwashed by upper management and wont stick up for you when it comes to them they must be scared of them. Your route will be different everyday even after you've been doing the same route for years because they want to run a new software program that tells you how to run your route. They only care for numbers. I spent almost five years of my life here and its been going down the tubes since. The best day of my career was when i left never felt more relived. The stress from diving plus managers breathing down your neck about every little thing because nothing is ever good enough for them they just want more and more its so annoying no trust at all. There's so many better jobs out there if your gonna consider doing this kind of work do it for UPS they pay way more I'm sure the work/life balance is way better from what I've heard. really wish i invested my time elsewhere and got some actual experience in something else besides driving.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
