re: Waitr sucks worse than fast food.

So, I have worked for Uber,Lyft, and Waitr and can explain some of the confusion. The way Waitr works for drivers is as follows. There is an in person interview, but my day 30 people came and no one was vetted or turned down. Then there is a hour long orientation. Then once you’re driving, unlike uber or Lyft with Waitr you have to pick and stick to a schedule. Once you are on the clock and turn on the app you pick different orders to go pick up. Most of the time they are busy enough where you are assigned orders based on time waited. Honestly, I can only speak for the Baton Rouge branch, but it’s horribly managed. The communication about assignments take place in a 800+ person group me where side chat is frequent and insubordination is accepted. It’s an awful awful setup. When the company was sold I was suprised they didn’t fire the managers immediately. That being said there is definitely importantance placed on food protection. Hot bag usage is mandatory and you get a much better product than say Uber eats. When you order Waitr someone is monitoring your order to make sure it’s not too late and also there’s full time customer service. It’s booming, but I would never work there again. Hope that cleared the process up.
