They used tips (and may still use tips) to refund themselves for the minimum pay offered to dashers.
The language was very deceptive, as giving a tip did not always increase the amount of money received by a dasher.

#4DoorDash sent out an email yesterday informing customers of the changes. They only mentioned that tipping was moving to after the checkout step, but nothing else. I simultaneously decided to stop ordering DoorDash yesterday; I've been gaining too much weight recently and spending too much money.

Briefly, in 2019, until it made the news and the policy was changed so that drivers kept 100% of tips. There's more nuance than "DD was keeping tips", but plenty already written about that if you care to find the 2019 articles.

#8> Dashers who deliver in NYC will now earn at least $29.93 per hour of active time, nearly twice NYC’s $15 minimum wage for other workers.
What’s a realistic amount of “active time” per hour? I’m assuming waiting for a job is not active time right?
> These new regulations will force us to raise fees for orders in New York City. In order to better balance the impact of these new costs, we’re moving the option to tip in the DoorDash app to after checkout.
So hiding the tip until after closing the sale to pretend the total price is cheaper? Very classy.
What’s funny is that the tip should come after the service is complete if it’s actually a tip for good service (otherwise how did you know what service you got?). But they’re clearly just trying to hide the true price.

#9Interested in how they count hours - are the only hours counted the hours where you are actively picking up / delivering an order? Or are employees also compensated for time spent waiting/looking for orders?

Wow I totally missed the “active” part, thanks for pointing that out.
Would love to hear from someone with actual DD experience what percentage of time is “active,” and what you have to do to keep that time high?
