Pros

Typically good pay/equity for salary employees at first.

Cons

(For salary roles) you're selling your soul and mental health, especially if you are on the S&O team. You will NOT get promoted unless the higher-ups WANT YOU TO (aka they favor you and like you). If they don't like you, then you'll be stuck, and likely blocked from moving into other roles too. Avoid Xenia at all costs. Avoid S&O if possible unless you're just as slimy as they are and step on others to move yourself forward. (Of course, there were a few "good ones"!) I lost my mental health when working here, and my relationships suffered from all the stress and demands of the job. You will likely be working other people's jobs that they aren't backfilling. Management must get in line to preach the demands of the higher-ups, such as being "excited" about returning to the office. They forced many people out of the company in this "second layoff".

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.
