Pros

I work across many business lines, and everyone I've worked with has been helpful and friendly. I felt welcomed when I started with this company. I've had the opposite experience at another company, so this is an attribute I value highly. First Student took swift action to allow WFH in my department during the beginning of the pandemic. I feel like this company values me, and my manager actively helps further my career.

Cons

Going into the office a few days a week became mandatory even though the pandemic continued.

Pros

The pay for driving is good, however, "driving is only part of the job description. May be well compensated for contracted substitute driver in other locations

Cons

Although there are rules to establish safe, orderly environments for riders and drivers, they are not enforced, and appear symbolic and subjective. Drivers have to bow to whomever decides how it will be handled instead of what the actual rules dictate, creating unnecessary chaos. There also appears to be a good amount of favoritism at this location and company rules and regulations are rarely enforced across the board, resulting in employees doing as they please with little to no repercussions.
