Pros

The money is good, especially if you are coming from retail. There are some good people who work here, that I'm glad I get to work with - but that's probably true for most places.

Cons

No work-life balance and the union drivers are allowed to disrespect you and treat you like crap. Overworked and exhausted. There's very little structure or organization.
