How is driving for Amazon?

I was laid off from my last job as a delivery driver for a florist. Since I have several years of experience, I thought I might apply for a job with Amazon. What do delivery drivers think about driving for Amazon?

Driving for Amazon isn’t like driving for
Uber or Lyft
. Driving for Amazon requires being a full-time employee of the company, and entails responsibilities such as interacting with management and adhering to a predetermined schedule.
The feedback on Amazon driver positions varies significantly, with some employees expressing satisfaction and others having negative experiences. Positive aspects of the job include competitive compensation and the inclusion of a 401(k) plan—however, it should be noted that taking time off can be difficult, and there is a stringent expectation for meeting delivery deadlines.
When considering any job opportunity, it is always a good idea to seek out other people who have previously held the position and ask them questions about their experience. Their insights can help you evaluate if the job's requirements and expectations suit your abilities and work style.
