Pros

Set your own hours. Start/Stop whenever you want

Cons

Pay per ride is drastically in Lyfts favor over the driver. Hidden surge pricing to passengers that you don’t receive the benefit of. The more hours you put in, the less bonuses are offered In order to make this a viable income source, you have to strategize rides, maintenance, and expenses. Often times you must put in a lot of hours to make it worth it. Sometimes feeling like you are working longer hours than a standard job.

Pros

You can make over $100 per day most of the time and you meet some nice people for the most part.

Cons

They stop paying you what you earn out of nowhere, then play dumb about it. All reps are Indian and very dismissive. The in app gps glitches constantly and sends you everywhere via the interstate, which forces you to spend more on gas. Riders make things up to get a free ride, which leads to the driver getting deactivated.
