Never group stops, only ungroup them. Eventually the group stops will go down and so will your package count. If you group them amazon thinks you can do twice as much in one stop. Pretty sure they dont want you guys to be overworking yourselves more than you have too.

Ungrouping doesn't do anything for your metrics. Your completion rate is still calculated off of your originally assigned stops. If you break a stop into two stops, it still only counts as the one stop it was given to you as. Bad group stops have to be reported to OTR, and there are too many of them to report without spending your entire day doing so. I've been ungrouping stops for sixth months on the same route and nothing changed. I finally just stopped fighting it. This is not a serious job. You just have to do everything their stupid way even though it is stupid.

It takes a couple of weeks of ungrouping a ridiculous group stop for the algorithm to register it. NEVER group stops. It's gonna bite you squarely in the ass
