Pros

-Freedom to do 1 or 2 hours at a time. For me this is the amount of time I can do it before it becomes tortuous -Can take rides in a direction that you are headed

Cons

-Tough full time job. 8 or 10 hours in consecutive days is a grind, and I don't recommend it. -If you need a full time job, you are probably getting one anywhere else (in California) -Be honest with yourself about what you are making after gas. If you are driving in the wrong area/hours, it can be well below minimum.

Pros

You can make over $100 per day most of the time and you meet some nice people for the most part.

Cons

They stop paying you what you earn out of nowhere, then play dumb about it. All reps are Indian and very dismissive. The in app gps glitches constantly and sends you everywhere via the interstate, which forces you to spend more on gas. Riders make things up to get a free ride, which leads to the driver getting deactivated.
