I have worked for instacart for 5 years. My pay has gone from $1500 weekly to less than $50 a week. They give new inexperienced shopper all the batches while experienced shoppers who have dedicated their time to shop for years. They know the store layout. How to pick produce. Everything. But when you give all paying batches to newbies specifically it hurts everyone. I have to look for new work now. And it bums me out because I enjoyed working as a shopper. But not for FREE!
