Great for a part time job! Very flexible

Pros

You are able to set your own schedule which is great, the pay is also above average for a customer service position. If you work in a small store setting you have no management so that can feel great to work on your own terms.

Cons

There would be bugs pretty frequently which made it difficult to perform your duties. You have to schedule a wider avalability to be scheduled at all, which would result in more shifts, but they would be shorter in length.

Pros

*Leadership is willing to promote internally and makes a conscious effort to develop its employees *Great learning opportunities- Instacart has an abundance of interesting projects to work on. *I met awesome people while working here and made lasting friendships. *Solid benefits, good food, and a convenient office location located near a lot of public transport

Cons

*Instacart operates in a complex space; it's beholden to tens thousands of shoppers, and a growing number of retail and brand partners. It has limited control of critical components of its service, such as availability of items in stores, or availability of new shoppers in key markets. *Work-life balance is poor on certain teams. Instacart's leadership cares about employees and is making an effort to improve this but a lot of teams are spread thin.
