Reviews about "bonus"

Pros
Great way to make extra money meet new people and you can set your own hours.
Cons
You’ve cut driver pay significantly while simultaneously over saturating market with new drivers. You offer no incentives on some weeks and weeks they are offered they are nearly impossible to achieve ie streak bonus for 1 hour periods. No offering of power zones decent guarantees and elimination of incentives such as power driver bonus. My last interaction regarding bonuses was that they were assigned at random and not guaranteed. Your loyalty and dedication to the company are not rewarded or recognized. Quite sad that it’s come to this. Can hardly cover expenses or justify wear and tear on your car for the now pathetic compensation offered given lack of bonuses or incentives.

Pros
Flexible schedule (if you don't want to try for a bonus) and riders are a little higher quality than Uber.
Cons
With a larger vehicle, I am averaging $50 and 4-6 rides every 4-5 hours online. Chasing "hot" zones is a bit of a sick joke and the airport averages about an hour wait for a $15-20 fair. The app is very glitchy and seems to work in the favor of Lyft; disqualifying drivers from the bonus by saying "something went wrong" and then showing that a ride was not accepted. Apples to Apples over the last four weeks, I have been online 32 hours with Lyft and received 8 rides for a total of $150. I was on during peak times in the "hot" zones, but burned all my $ in fuel trying to get to good zones. All that effort resulted in one peak ride. I worked 38 hours online with Uber, received over 35 rides for over $700. I tried to make Lyft make sense and worked into the wee hours to try for the bonus, but it is very much a setup to fail scenario. Very disappointing experience.
