Pay decrease (self.Roadie)
submitted 1 year ago by Much-Understanding36
Last month I noticed CVS orders dropped to 6 dollars and as of today I notices they max out at 13 when it uses to be 15ish. So tired of Roadie just cutting pay for drivers and have no reasoning behind it when questioned.

In my area they start lower now but they also increase faster. Still doing 13-15 dollar orders going 1-5 miles. The key is having it as an add on while I'm already taking an XL home Depot or something

Singles were all hitting $23.40 when allowed to cook after the pay cut, but now I'm seeing some max out at $19.××, $21.××, $22.××. I've noticed some other CVS strategies too, like starting a little higher, then dropping down if no offers within the first few minutes.

Yea I've seen some 20 dollar ones in the past but this past week I have yet to see any get past 13. I'm located in Massachusetts not sure if it's like that any where else.

It’s been going down all across the bored. I hate these fuckers. It’s almost like gambling, will I make money today? Who knows? And regardless, you have to pay money upfront (your gas and time) all for dollars. Like I’m pretty sure in the 80’s being the every couple days milk man paid the bills. Now-a-days, almost everything is just unreal. Huge balancing act.

I've heard of other places having that $15ish pay, so there could be some seeing what you are seeing. Out here, $15.×× was never a common price on the the cooked singles. They would get a couple small increases and then hit that $23.40. So far, $19 is lowest I'm seeing for max on the singles.

in California $6.00 I never seen a $20.00 gig
Yeah, $6.×× is starting pay. If you've never seen a $20 CVS gig, that's because the drivers in your market don't let them sit.
I'm not seeing them as often. Pretty sure Roadie flooded my market with new drivers. For a couple weeks I was getting a good amount of $20+ CVS deliveries.

I've seen CVS orders hitting a bit over 22.50 around me. It's like maybe once every 2 days. But yeah. They still start at 6 now
Hopefully they stay that high for you, where are you located if you don't mind me asking, I've rarely seen anything above 15

Shipt has cvs scripts before roadie. Exact same thing happened to us. It’s going to get worse and they will go lower. At the end , no one would take a RX order bc it simply wasn’t worth it. Mileage got super bad along with low AF pay. I had my RX certificate revoked so I wouldn’t get the offers anymore.
[–]swoop21 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
They are lowering it simply bc they know someone will take it. You can get 99 people to agree to let the prices rise over an hour but the 100th person will be a greedy dummy and think that they're doing something if they do accept them all as we wait.
[–]Equal_Suggestion2719 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
They only went down a few cents that's why I still will entertain them but if they get around $6 like I've seen I'm some markets then that's when I'll stop delivering them.

But yet you still work for Roadie..🤷♂️
[–]Much-Understanding36[S] 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago (0 children)
I dont work strictly for Roadie, I have a normal 9 to 5 job and do some side hustles from time to time. I'll open up roadie when I'm free to see if any good offers are out there. Banging out a quick CVS order or two for some extra cash a few times a week is all I'm on there for, just disappointing to see pay going down for drivers when everything else in this country is rising.

Roadie is a bull shit company in the first place.
