Pros

You're out of the office in a few hours and by yourself for multiple hours. That's it, those are all of the pros.

Cons

Pay is not consistent. Managers will try to steal your pay constantly because it gets them bigger bonuses. You will be overworked. 365 days a year if they want you to. Feel like you need a day off? Better burn a sick day. You will constantly be delivering other-carriers' routes on-top-of your own because management will fail to find someone to cover them. Your vehicle will constantly break down, and occasionally burst into flames.

Pros

Getting to work independently and at your own tempo.

Cons

Not having equal pay for equal work. Employment is split into two tears regulars, and “part-timers“. These two positions perform the same work however, those who have not made regular are forced into a dependency on regulars to take time off and provide hours. This in my opinion was exploitation and an unethical tactic to avoid paying benefits to workers. In my experience, there was resentment towards regulars, because they viewed RCA‘s as a way to get a day off and not colleagues on an equal standing.
