Pros

I doordash so that I am available 24/7 to my kids. It is easy work.

Cons

The driver only gets paid $2 per order so really depends on tips. It is not hourly, but the driver is given bad reviews or loses ratings (which affects offers given) if they have to wait a long time at a restuaurant or even if a store is out of a requested item.

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.
