Nice time working here

Delivery driver

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- After a 4-year "progression" period, full-time drivers reach "top scale" pay. As of 2024–2025, top-rate drivers earn roughly $45–$49 per hour. With overtime, many drivers earn over $100,000 annually. - Once you leave the building for your route, you are largely on your own. There is no boss physically standing over your shoulder, allowing you to manage your day as long as you follow safety and delivery protocols.

Cons

his is a grueling job. You will be in and out of the truck 150–250 times a day, often carrying packages up to 70 lbs (and sometimes 150 lbs with a dolly). Chronic knee, back, and shoulder issues are common among career drivers.

Business Outlook

Pros

easy to get the job. an active/ mobile job.

Cons

You will get surprised with 1000 dollars in union dues, to work 2 months part time where you will be lucky to get 25 hours a week at 18 dollars an hour. You get 0 union benefits, no overtime pay past 8 hours, no insurance. Honest opinion, this is a SCAM and ill never do it again. You'll get a letter of delinquent union dues at the end of the season for an additional 800 dollars after they take 50 dollars a week from you.
