What are you most excited about working at Postmates?
I don't work for that crooked, low wage paying, profit gouging hypocrites. they pay slave wages. They make record profits.
It wasn't cutting edge, but there is a lot of work to do to get it up to speed and they don't want to pay for the people to do the work.
What is the onboarding process like at Postmates and how long does it last?
I would say it was not good. I worked for them a short time ago and they claimed without providing proof that I did something that violated their rules. I think what they do is set employees up to fail. I was told that they plant employees in various locations who pose as customers. They then past false judgement on you. Their wages are not the best in the world. I think that they are wage oppressors.
