Pros
The actual driving of the bus is not stressful. The routes are bus friendly.
Cons
Driver pay rate, and employees are not afforded any sick time.
Advice to Management
When negotiating contracts keep in mind the location of the terminal, adequate parking for buses and personal vehicles. Driver break room, restroom, and ensure that the stop times are calculated with wheelchairs and traffic delays in mind.
