It's crap
My experience with Amazon Flex was extremely disappointing. The platform promotes flexibility, but the reality is that the driver carries almost all the costs: gas, vehicle maintenance, wear and tear, depreciation, traffic, and the time spent dealing with difficult routes.
The pay often does not reflect the real effort required to complete deliveries. After calculating fuel expenses and vehicle costs, the actual earnings can be far lower than what many people expect. On top of that, the rating and performance system can feel unfair because drivers may be penalized for situations outside of their control, such as incorrect addresses, customers not being available, app issues, or problems during the route.
Drivers provide their own vehicles, pay for their own expenses, and put in the work to make deliveries happen, yet many times they do not feel properly supported by the company.
Amazon should do a better job of recognizing the real costs and challenges faced by Flex drivers. I would not recommend Amazon Flex to anyone looking for a truly profitable and sustainable way to earn money. Do your calculations carefully before investing your time and putting unnecessary wear on your vehicle.
