Omits-Bagels posted:Why is that? The more drivers the better the service and more money they make. Because the only jobs that constantly want new employees that much are terrible ones with high turnover rates, terrible ones that can afford infinity employees because they are lovely enough to employees that pay is tied to number of employees or amount of money earned for the company (such as commissioned sales or MLM marketing), and terrible jobs that aren't able to attract enough workers in the first place and are therefore perpetually understaffed. Uber falls mostly into the second category, though with a fair dose of the first (driver turnover is apparently quite high). The more drivers there are, the better Uber's service looks and the more money Uber makes...but more drivers means each individual driver makes less and gets fewer fares. ManDingo posted:Minimum wage is surprising. They must not give the driver a very large proportion of the cash or you spend a lot of time looking for fares. I regularly use Uber and a trip downtown is $12 there and usually $20 back on account of surge pricing. The trip never takes more than 10 minutes either way. This is about half the cost of a regular taxi service. Although it varies by region, conditions, destination, how long Uber has operated in the area, and other things, the driver probably sees about $9 out of the $12 you paid, before costs such as gas, insurance, and cleaning. However, Uber pay typically declines over time - once Uber has enough drivers in a region, they often cut fares, and surge pricing will become rarer as well.
