Salary- TaskRabbit pays in the bottom 30% of the industry standard across the board- this includes engineers.
Employee headcount- everyone there quit so there is currently no Android development, limited Product resources (as in NONE), one data scientist, a marketing team of one and no business intelligence. There is also no sales, one person managing partnerships, and a member service team that only exists to "put out fires" in the marketplace.
The product- Essentially TaskRabbit is a platform for untalented, unskilled laborers to come together and charge an hourly rate of whatever they want to quite literally do anything you need. These are people who have been fired from other jobs, are unemployable and generally have no other options but to deliver your groceries or scrub your toilet. They're given the freedom to charge $150/ hour or more for their time. They also are never asked to prove that they are capable of performing these duties so every time you hire one of these people, you risk them being inexperienced.
High level management- There is a major disconnect within the direction of the company. TaskRabbit is not a startup, it is a confused, 8-9 year old company that still does not have their goals together enough to develop any further. There are major structural and operational changes that occur regularly, which is a sign that a company is suffering. Several of us voluntarily declined our stock options because we do not see the company having any worth in the future.
