Pros

-Easy hire -Direct deposit every week -Ability to pick your own schedule

Cons

-Can you make $25+/ hour? Yes. But if you average out all the hours you worked it's usually $10-14 hourly depending on city your in. For instance, you can work the 11-1:30 shift and get one group order and make $20-25 in one hour but then not get any other orders. So basically you just used your own car, gas, mileage, and time to make roughly minimum wage (sometimes less). -Down time can be long and boring. Bring a book or if your a student, study! -You don't ever feel like your apart of the company. The only time you are at the office is to pick up stickers or drop off food. No sense of community or belonging. -You have to pay money for the equipment (phone charger, shirts, etc.). If you quit before 100 your out $60-65.

Pros

Restaurant relations, improving customer relations, great organization practice, self-motivated, flexible time schedules with minimum weekly requirements, great management as well, full tip retention

Cons

Little to no face interaction with other FLUC members, the weekly minimum requirement, some cities give a base minimum per hour while others give none so if nobody orders food, there will be no wage.

Pros

The hours are very flexible, staff is incredibly friendly and helpful! This is a good job for a college student with a Prius/Electric car.

Cons

As Drivers, the Fluc driver team puts their own cars, gas money, and mileage on the line to help this startup work, and for that, the drivers deserve higher pay. There are way too many times when you're incredibly far from the restaurant you're picking up from and the individual you're delivering to. For example, I can be in the Woodside Hills and I get an order to pick up in Downtown Redwood City. It takes me 10-15 minutes to get down to Redwood City then I pick up my order only to find out i'm delivering it to Menlo Park which takes me another 10-15 minutes to get to. The "back and forth" effort you put into this job, your gas money, and mileage do not negate the wage delivery that Fluc gives you and tips depend on what area you're working in. Sure, some days you make some decent money but at the end of the day, that money you made is going towards your gas so you end up making less than half of what you thought. An electric car is a must for this job to make decent money.
