Re:DoorDash to Slash 1,250 Jobs to Pare Back Rising Costs by RC_ITR on Wednesday November 30, 2022 @06:24PM (#33809529)
Read up the thread my guy.

>Gonna be very unpopular here, but the sooner gig companies like Uber and DoorDash collapse, the better. The business model of these so-called unicorns is effectively a Ponzi scheme where the end goal is for early investors to cash out with the IPO. However, unlike a Ponzi, these companies also rip off their contractors so most restaurants and drivers actually lose money by being involved with their "service". Straight-up middlemen who skim off the top behind a veneer of tech that can't even turn in a profit. Build a real business. If you can't be profitable without eliminating all the competition by first undercutting them, then jacking up prices on users, then you shouldn't exist
