Avantages
Well you will get paid @ $12/hour initially, but eventually that one goes away and becomes a Piece rate ($0.14 per item scanned). At the beginning you need to do a lot to get along with knowing how it works, which is good but the company will not tell you at the beginning that you will be transferred to the Piece rate eventually. So all the efforts that you make just evaporates.
Inconvénients
Transferring to the Piece rate means you lose your opportunity to make more money. You cannot make enough money while you are on Piece rate. The contracting procedure should be transparent at the beginning. The Data Collectors don't have even a chance of being considered for the district manager positions, even if they are qualified. The company just don't even lets you know about up coming opportunities. All you have to do is just data collection.
