Platform is garbage for the Techs
Pay is Ok. Just makes it about worth it.
Problems from the Tech side:
1. you can accept a job, block out your personal time, but if they don’t confirm, its not guaranteed. Lots of “unknown” feeling and feeling like you’re wasting your time
2. Customers can charge back tips. I did extra work and provided peripherals and then the customer called support and removed the large tip after. They simply told me they are reducing my pay. Nevermind the additional cables and stuff I bought for the customer! Do they want us to accept payment out of app or not?
3. Lack of jobs (greater NYC area). At first when I signed up over a year ago you’d get one a week, maybe (and youd have to grab it right away or another tech would take it)
4. The company is using its Tech base to advertise full time contract jobs with garbage pay and you cant do any other work during that time, when the whole point of the app is to be your own boss! They just pay you less than what theyre getting from the company, like a sleazy recruitment agency. These ads are constant, and the ONLY jobs pushed out to Techs in my area in the last year or so.
Overall, skip this app and get referrals for clients through word of mouth.
