Pros

Getting money, sometimes Being alone

Cons

Getting shown one guaranteed offer and accepting it and being given less money. Broken app that forces you to do what they want. Working constantly and following all the rules to still be affected negatively. Having no recourse for the things they do to their drivers. Being told that your on time by support but marked late in the app(which effects your status and thusly your pay) Being paid less than 30 cents per mile for a 25mile trip Using your own car and insurance Paying for your own gas Being taxed like an independent contractor but making less than 10 dollars per hour before expenses while also having to work a schedule that they allow for offers that they show me while collecting fees from both me and the customer and then saying that they are not part of the process and are not liable for any negative experience as a result of any order taken from their app Having a record of all of this and not being able to do anything.

Pros

Very flexible Work as much or as little as you want The pay, tips, etc, could be better but times aren't the same for everyone as they used to be, so I completely understand.

Cons

I think door dashers are definitely underappreciated and underpaid for what they do

Pros

No set schedule / work when you want to / instant pay

Cons

The pay has consistently gotten worse / app failure cancellations and company card declines used to get half pay now they give nothing or $2 when it say’s guaranteed whatever the offer pay accepted may be. Offers are so low lately that if you accept the lowballs you loose money and if not they lower your ratings. No way to prevent lowball offers and restaurants lately are so disorganized and slow that you have to unassign many offers due to such poor service in these fast food and other restaurants hurting driver ratings and or loosing time and money. Disputing ratings: when customers lie so they can get their items free is pointless to dispute with the support because the ratings stay same regardless
