Pros
Amazon Flex pays decently (~$19 per hour) but that can quickly be eaten up in gas costs. Routes are most of the time, put together well. Its possible to complete a 4 hour shift in 2 hours.
Cons
Amazon Flex is still a new concept to a lot of people. Its sometimes weird for customers to see an unmarked car roll up to their house and drop off packages. Its even more awkward for the driver. Sometimes you will have a shift thats an hour away, which increases how much gas you have to use, more gas = less money earned. So that $19 an hour turns into $15 an hour. Also don’t forget that when your insurance finds out your using your car for work, that is probably going to increase in cost as well.
