Vantaggi

Core Values, company lives by the core values. They are referenced often and the values of the company comes first over anything else. The company is relentless in bottom-line results but the core values makes it a very human experience.

Svantaggi

I would just be nit-picking. What I wish is that we could figure out a way to connect better with our drivers...I think a lot of Cabbies may be hard on luck coming into driving and as a result they may not feel appreciated or their outlook may not be all that positive. What I can tell you is that our drivers really do make a difference and make our community a better place...Not just about bar or airport runs anymore. Our drivers take care of thousands of people every day with health and behavioral challenges. It is NOT an easy gig for a driver and these Cabbies really are unsung heroes of our community.

Vantaggi

Flexible hours, pleasant work (for the most part) if you enjoy people.

Svantaggi

Driver starts out the day needing to make ~ $150 just to break even (lease, gas, dispatch fees). Exploitive labor practices that exist because Total Transit has found a loophole in the Fair Labor Act by calling the drivers Independent Contractors. Drivers receive no employee benefits and most cab drivers will average less than $3 an hour after expenses and taxes, some will end their shift owing money to the company. A day driver’s business will consist mainly of below meter fares (vouchers), fine for the cab company as they get their money no matter what but costs the driver $70 - $100 per day. As a result of Discount’s policy of over-hiring the wait time for a cab is usually 1.5 – 2.5 hrs, on busy days some cabbies will wait over 7 hrs. if they really need a car. Because of the low pay many drivers are exhausted from driving too many hours. To get a cab in a reasonable time frame and drive enough hours to turn some profit the driver will not have the chance to get more than 4-5 hours sleep per night, not enough to drive safely. Driver beware!
