You make less money driving Uber than working McDonalds. You have no health benefits, you pay for your own car expenses and insurance. You have rules, dress code and regulated driving routes but none of the benefits of a real job. Uber "suggests" you do many things as a driver - those aren't suggestions - they're requirements and you can be let go if you don't follow them.
You do get good peak pay if you pick up people from bars on heavy usage times... but you'll have to drive at night and deal with drunk people who may puke in your car - again you're on your own to clean all that up.
My friends complain to no end about driving Uber - but they have no choice as it's the only game in town. Lyft is better for drivers but they don't have nearly as much traffic.
So Uber - great for the passengers, sucks for drivers.
A journalist went undercover to try to make it work. This matches the experiences my friends have had driving for Uber.

If your friends think that Uber is so crap, why on earth do they keep driving for Uber? Maybe time for another job?
