In previous years my Instacart and Zipcar annual fees were $100 and $35 (even and included tax). This year they started adding tax on top of it without any notice. These aren’t the only companies I’ve noticed doing this. Is this because inflation? It seems sketch to suddenly start adding tax like that rather than it being inclusive like previous years.

    Application

    I applied through other source. I interviewed at Zipcar (United States) in Dec 2022

    Interview

    I was reached out to directly by the hiring manager, went through three total interviews. I received no job description or discussion of compensation. I was told I would hear back regarding a final decision and was never contacted again. A waste of both of our time.
