Now Delivery

As every job has advantages and disadvantages.  The advantages were that you could work as much or as little you want, you can choose when you want to work, what hours also since the company works 24/7. You can reject jobs that you are not interested in. You can take time off all long you need, they will get you covered,your check doesn't get deducted any tax. You get a gift card for Christmas (money coming from your own hard work) It's great to be your own boss but there is a high price to pay for. Disadvantages are that you have 0 benefits. 0 paid training, you get only "50%" pay of the job when you are the  one that have to drive your own car, deal with traffic, bad weather where there is one. You can't see how much the client pays for your service. (Company doesn't show you that) You get paid per job not per hour and from pick up place to drop off place, not from your place to the pick up place. Sometimes you drive more distance to the pick up place that what you drive to drop off,  (not worth it) at tax season you can only claim your miles, how much you spent on items related to your job the rest you spent on your car, it's on you. Two insurances to pay 1. A covering from $100,00 to $150,00 2. The Umbrella insurance which is a 4% deducted on every paycheck ( you never see that money back) but you can claim it when you are doing your taxes. The very 1st page of the contract (annually) is that you can't sue the company, after working a while I understood why. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Working on my own and knowing it’s meaningful and necessary  work

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Winter weather on rts I95 and I495 and mileage on my personal car. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Picking up specimens in clinics and hospitals and highway traffic. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Report to hospital, sign in at labs pick up needed supplies for delivery. Drive to clinics each day was a 50 mile route in two states drop off supplies pick up specimens return to hospital for drop offs the on to clinics for pickups. Started at 2pm finished at 6 pm.

A typical day at work would be going to Newton Wellesley Hospital picking up reports and delivering them to all hospitals in Boston. The management at this job was great they were always there when you needed them. About co workers you generally would work alone all day so you would never really see a co worker for very long. The hardest part of the job was just sitting in Boston traffic constantly the most enjoyable was always being outdoors in the fresh air.

Overall it’s a good job, if you don’t like long trips or driving for long periods of time than I wouldn’t recommend otherwise it is a good job. I just started not too long ago so I can’t talk about pay just yet but so far I don’t mind the driver and it’s a relatively easy job once you learn how to get around the hospitals. That is another thing your mostly delivering for hospitals. I have gotten deliveries from lawyer firms but I believe it it rare. It is mostly hospitals. 

This Company does not acknowledge good workers
They have a lot of people in the office making the money and they do not take care of their drivers financially 
Plus they never get back to you 
A terrible communication with their employees 
I was there four years and never got an hourly pay scale increase 
Instead they just ignore you
Your better off to go work for uber or Door Dash 
Don’t waste your time and wear and tear on your vehicle 

The best part about working here is you can set your own schedule. It is almost like uber, you can work any hours of the day you want and go home when you want. The management is so supportive and great. Also everyday you can go somewhere different or new all over the place so it never gets boring. The worst part is getting stuck in Providence or Boston traffic though.

I work here for 2 years, customers are nice you work mostly for hospital so they get very busy esspecially with covid. I deliver lab specimen for hospitals in Boston, parking can be difficult and you have to set money aside for vehicle expense. They flexible with work schedule and management is supportive of you, if you need more time they work with you

Work Culture 
Well established, experienced, trusted company 
Good, fair management 
Diversity amongst employees (in race, age, backgrounds, work experience, etc.)
Employees don’t have many complaints 

Other
Paid based on mileage 
Flexible schedule 
Overtime opportunities regularly available 


Customer service assists drivers and customers all over the place, can be very stressful when call volumes are high but you face different challenges everyday and work with management to resolve. Management is fair but they will hold you accountable. Sometimes have to work weekends.

This job is not for everyone.  You have to like being nice to customers and sometimes they can be rude becsue you may be late because of weather or traffic. But it's because they need to do medical tests on specimens so I get it.  Good thing is they pay good money and you can work all different times they work 24/7/365.
