Pros

They did hire some decent and talented engineers to work with but most of them left the company.

Cons

The company is all about “winning together” and “looking after”. It might apply to you as a customer but sadly not to employees. It’s pretty clear management plays favorites and does not handle employee dissatisfaction correctly. There’s a reason why turnover is so high at this place. Most of the employees voluntarily leave the company within a year. When someone asked a question on improving employee satisfaction the CEO basically said “a lot of people here are talented people and the market is very competitive” which basically means no plans. Yes they do not care. They just keep hiring more people without thinking even though more people are leaving. Capsule did hire a lot of so called “diverse group of people” but frankly it mostly applies to customer service and even then it was due to the effort of VP. They don’t respect female engineers and they act like the company is doing a great job promoting diversity but they are not. There are no plans in regards to this either. When complaints are made they try their best to shut you down. Clearly a sign why this place doesn’t care about employees or neither retaining them. If you consider yourself a minority I would say think twice before joining and not get fooled by a college pamphlet type of diversity advertising.

Pros

You work alone with no micromanaging Finish your route early? Still paid for the full 3-hour window

Cons

Zero reimbursement for gas, vehicle maintenance, insurance, repairs, or wear-and-tear—you eat all those costs Must use your own cell phone and data plan—no company support Classified as W-2 employee, so no way to deduct business expenses (IRS allows ~$0.76/mile for mileage)Average route ≥35 miles = ~$27 in unreimbursed costs per shift A “$24/hour” 3-hour shift drops to roughly $15/hour or less after mileage alone “Tips” are paid to the company, then added to your pay as “incentives” — not classified as tips, so you’re fully taxed on them with no tip tax benefits Extremely high turnover—constant stream of new people because they burn drivers out fast They’ll run you ragged, then move on to the next driver This might be tolerable as a very short-term cash grab (one week max). Long-term? They exploit you and don’t care. Don’t do it.
