Pros

The concept of the product - vanpooling/carpooling - is great and eco-friendly. The pay and benefits were good while I was there. Except when it came to calculating bonuses and they couldn't do 6th grade math and took over 3 months to correct it.

Cons

The pricing was terrible unless they were selling to government workers. The "leadership team" didn't lead much at all and did so from at least 4 states away from where most of the work was actually being done. The accounting practices where terrible, if not unethical. They couldn't do basic math. The blew all kinds of money but had shrinking margins. They just aren't able to keep up or provide a reasonably priced product.

Pros

Good for the environment, economy and the well-being of commuters. Saves money, time and stress for those who have a long commute. Easy, flexible and reliable transportation for the fraction of the cost of commuting alone.

Cons

The communication and fair management practices are lacking. The management in my office was run by "best friends", so it was hard to relate problems or communicate effectively due to the "favoritism" and inequality of assignments. Company was moving away from the "one-on-one" individual attention and excellent customer service it was known for, to all "Sales" vision - with an emphasis on numbers. They were moving away from a "one-stop shop" to 800 numbers and further and further away from the "Personal Touch" of making each customer feel important.
