    Yes.. I had a neighbor that worked for them and he was home every weekend and he loved it. Said they were the best company he ever worked for. I'd go for it..

    According to their own website it says "UP TO" .41 cpm .

    Even if you get the bonuses (.02 and .03) you'd have to drive over 4000 miles per week to make $1800

    Sounds like bs to me ; plus their owned by P&S

    Really ? I'm not sure then ,but that's a lot of money . You wouldn't think they would need a recruiting department for $80k-$100k jobs
