Pros

Decent pay for first 3 months while you are considered hourly.

Cons

You go from making $450 to $500 a week during your 3 months entry period to changing to piece rate where you more like $150 a week if you are lucky. Most projects only pay $.01-cents per scan, some pay $.05-cents each, if you are lucky you might get a project paying $.12-scan. I've been with them about a year, and watched my projects and pay in my area dwindle down to making only about $30 a week, if I am lucky. Not really worth the gas expense of driving 20 miles one way to the retail store. They also try to assign you stores that are outside a reasonable area, for example, you get asked to work a store that is 40 miles away one way. Or suddenly there is no work at all with only a 1 day or same day notice that there is no longer work in the stores that you cover. Also, get hired for a specific store/project and when I started, get another lower paying but more detail involved project without ever being told, it just appeared on my schedule. I went for several months without any work at all. And when you have a payroll issue it's a nightmare to get fixed. I am still arguing over a pay issue from over a year ago.

Pros

Flexible, easy to learn the basics and complete self-paced training, and a good option for side income that can work around a main job or busy life. They have a help line to call for trouble with jobs and questions. If you have to leave a voicemail, they are usually pretty good about calling back fairly quickly.

Cons

Sometimes you have to figure out how to do certain jobs on the fly if you haven't done them before, so it can feel a bit like being tossed in and expected to sink or swim. They do have a help line to call if you have trouble figuring it out, though.
