Instacart reviews

There is honestly nothing good about working for this company except for picking your hours .. I was desperate for a quick job so I took it...and even still you’re not guaranteed to make money $$ during your shift. For example for one shift of 5 hrs, you may have 1 grocery batch only paying you $10-$20? Terrible! You’re timed..to get to the store , shop all the groceries with the exact items specified , cash out load car , drive to customers house/business and unload, in a specific amount of time. Customers don’t tip always and when you receive your batch with Amt you will be paid plus tip...customer that’s super cheap can retract the tip amount after you do all the work and shop for them within a certain time frame. The ware and tear on your car and gas is not compensated by the company all comes out of your pocket. Also for a huge grocery list being delivered to a building you’re responsible and not forewarned by company to buy out of your pocket a buggy to carry all the groceries to customers living in high rise buildings! Customers complain when store doesn’t have items and remove tips and mark bad reviews on your page as if it’s your fault the store was out of stock. This is my second time trying to post my review so much to mention but won’t go on or they will not post my review. All in all get a better more reliable better paying job. This company is nothing short of CHEAP! If I wasn’t a single mother trying to provide for my kids I would quit immediately.

$12 to drive across town, park your car legally, shop, stand in a line, pack your bags in your car, drive to the customers house, possibly take the bags up 4 or flight steps of stairs to the customer. There was a time when the orders would pay $30-$50 for large orders. Now large orders will pay you $20-$30 if you’re lucky. And after doing an order which takes a little over an hour, you may be exhausted.
