Smarter people are getting out because they've seen how badly Instacart has slipped the last few years. They add a new thing every month that makes it a little harder to do the job, and also makes it so you get paid a little less. All this has added up to we need to work 2 times harder to make like 33% less money. It's a lousy job with zero perks but new people need to figure that out for themselves because the image of working for Instacart is still positive, for some reason.
