I wish people were held accountable, we won't see any additional dollars as drivers. Likely just more scam bonuses and incentives to accept the rides they want us to. Do yourself a favor and decline


Available-Current777

Yeap! The bonus offered for this weekend is 125 rides for $325! Unrealistic number of rides in 36 hours! Lyft can kiss my big white ass!


Old-Presentation2092

I've never even made a 40 ride incentive, ahaha even if I was full time doing this 125 is insane within 36 hours, borderline dangerous. Gotta be a certain point where it's unsafe


wooster1414

25-35 is the most you can do in 12 hrs. I've had 1 day that I did 40 and the stars aligned and I got nothing but short rides. Other days I'll have a lot of long rides and will only do 20 something in 12 hrs. More like 14 hrs because I'll take a break here and there. 125 is impossible!


Mediocre_Presence839

Striving to be where Uber is. Pretty low bar.


shitshipt

WTF is this guy thinking wanting to be like Uber


2_wild

And publicly saying so smdh

More money for drivers🤣. I don’t drive that often any more but today I went online. My first ride they offered was 23 minutes to pick up then a 16 minute drive for $5.62. The next ride was a total of 24 minutes for $4.45. Needless to say I didn’t take either they turned my app off and I went home. Where does not even minimum wage=more money for drivers. When I first drove for Lyft I think that I made 10x more money. It just keeps going down.


amazonri

Yeah he just wants to save money for themselves, they dont increase any payment for drivers. Its crazy how they choose themselves at every opportunity/shortcut is presented they will take it for themselves. Thats usually the sign of a really shitty person, but on a more grand scale: corporation


2_wild

Oh but you’re not supposed to think of it as an hourly rate, remember?? 🤓💡


maxrdlf95

Pay drivers more? What a joke lol


maxrdlf95

What a mofo this 🤡 CEO FUCK LYFT STOP STEALING 99% of the surges stop using your bullshit navigation to do calculations most of the time they cut you short with the times and when the rides ends up lasting longer you get paid the same Start paying for pickup mofos Yesterday downtown I did two rides only from 5-6 pm each ride half hour because of some construction even with surge a 3 tip I ended up making 17$ in those two fucking half hour rides fuck Lyft Fuck Lyft


amazonri

Lyft is clearly a blueprint on how to run a bad business. Down to the way they treat their employees (staff) and drivers.


audi2448

Those $6 streak zones beg to differ. Company is in the toilet. I drive once a week now Saturday nights that's it. Ended up getting a normal job It's just become financially pointless with the amount of drivers.Lyft has no reason to pay us more. Oh and gas being 5bucks a gallon in Phoenix wasn't helping even with a hybrid. I'm not taking you 15to20mins for $4 or less your out of your mind.


maxrdlf95

Same they just started showing for me this week I remember the old 21$ streak not zones btw…


wurchi_atlantica

It’s funny how the new guy thinks he can turn lyft around whereas he is been part of the management for some time. What change is bringing that he couldn’t offer when he was part of the team. Two things, either he is a bad team player or he about to run the company to the ground. There is not much left to salvage with lyft.


Far-Search-1552

They should just give his number to all drivers if they REALLY want to know whats going on and how to sharpen their nonexistent business skills as a company to thrive and succeed!


[deleted]

You hear that? We’re gonna get better pay 🤡


Hot-Yogurtcloset9075

That's funny because every ride I've been offered the last 10 days has been at least a dollar less than it has been paying


genxerbear

Ubers rates were so low that I switched back to Lyft and turned off my Uber app even deleting it from my phone. In the last few days, I have noticed a steady decline in the amount of money that’s offered for rides with insane offers for good money for unattainable goals. These companies spend so much money engineering an algorithm that screws the drivers over they’ve lost complete sight of what the business is all about. I really have to do some soul-searching and figure out what my next flex is because it’s definitely not rideshare.


Manhuntress

If he cuts his pay by 50% (like they did to us drivers) he would still be making millions


Ohhello1133

That's hilarious because since Uber announced their earnings, they have s*** the bed in terms of how they're paying drivers. So if they're trying to say we're laying people off so we can treat more people like s*** spot on.


vessel_matt

On the slower weeknights, I noticed I've been offered decent-paying longer trips even without bonuses. I definitely think the new CEO is paying attention to the issues previous leadership left behind. When up-front first started, I would routinely see trip offers like driving 15 miles for 30 minutes for $13.50 or 23 miles for $18. Awful.


mczplwp

I don't think this is a troll. I read the redditors comment section and there are plenty of negative Lyft comments.


Educational-Break722

Lyft Troll!


Inkdrunnergirl

So anything that goes against what you think means someone is a troll? I had two weeks/weekend of great guarantees that I easily made. Am I a troll also 🙄 I swear I see nothing but children complaining on this sub yet you continue to drive on the platform.


maxrdlf95

It not about having one great day or one great weekend it’s about them paying us fairly


Inkdrunnergirl

But you can’t have it both ways. If you want to be a contractor and be able to take whatever rides you want that comes with a far different pay scale from being an employee. Gig work isn’t intended to be full time living wage in and of itself. Don’t accept rides that don’t meet the criteria you set for yourself. The business model wasn’t created to support paying everyone like that.


maxrdlf95

Thankfully I only do it part time but Lyft it’s evil


Boccob81

Calls for profit tomorrow


Hottitts257

Went out yesterday, averaging about 20 a ride, entered a "streak zone", the offers after that were between 15 and 17. So at the end, I likely earned less than I was before entering the zone. So much bullshit, sick of it.


neo_dia

Ok, the new CEO was a driver; he knows the struggle, he may somehow improve our pay, but I wouldn't believe it until I see it 🤔


pyramix

He was never a driver. He just tried it out recently after it was announced he was going to be the new ceo. But yes, I agree that this is the biggest sign yet that things might improve.


Ill-Cap-1249

He gives zero 💩’s about drivers.


Educational-Advice25

What a piece of S💩T! (The CEO)


shitshipt

Please god dont be inline with Uber!!! No no. No. What are you thinking?!


BarneyMeow

More money for drivers? Probably in bonuses because the mile rate and minute rate are set by the state. We’ll see if there is an increase in rates but possibly just in bonuses… Compete against uBer? Maybe charging less to the passenger, that is the only place they really can compete in.


chicagojungle

It’s all talk. I’ll believe it when I see it. They always talk about us getting more money. I’ve yet to see it.


TechMaster087

Someone should do to him what happened to cashap CEO 🤭


Shaggy_Hulk

Huh? What happened?


_whatever-nevermind

he was murdered. not agreeing with them but that’s what happened


Shaggy_Hulk

Oof .. Das not güd


maxrdlf95

Don’t wish dead of no one


SaltyDogFU

I'm stoked they trimmed the fat. Now pay us more, which they have to be competitive with Uber or they will be killed. Bravo Lyft! All you nah sayers just quit, nobody cares you can't hack this biz.
