Pros

Flexible schedule- only sign up for shifts you are available for. Take time off anytime- it’s unpaid, but the choice is nice to have. Work as little or as much as you can handle.

Cons

Rates of pay have gone down significantly over the past 4 years. There used to be an abundance of gigs that paid 28-45$/hour, but most employers dropped their pay to $17-21/hour. Extremely strict punishment for canceling gigs, even with legitimate reason (car accident, hospitalization, death in the family). All future shifts may get canceled and your account suspended.

Pros

You get to spend a lot of time dancing around like a monkey for these guys.And if you like monkeys, I guess that's a pro

Cons

There are app allows you to do absurd things. Because they don't have faith in people. And then they discriminate against you in ways which is federally illegal. But they don't care, because you'll continue to talk to AI. And when AI doesn't know what to say, it just starts repeating itself like a broken record. This app it needs updated
