Delivery dude Dave said the instacart ex ceo & guy is working there. Here is from goog: Walmart hired former Instacart Chief Product Officer Daniel Danker as Executive Vice President of AI Acceleration, Product, and Design. While his enterprise-wide role focuses broadly on AI and last-mile strategies, Spark delivery drivers widely attribute recent app changes—such as lower base pay structures, bundled triple-shop orders, and first-come-first-serve adjustments—to his arrival and the adoption of Instacart-style operational strategies.

I just want them to fix the interface when you do a shop. Why are you telling me to go to A7, then to J11, and then back to A9? It used to be all grouped together, but now every time you select and scan something, it scrambles the whole shopping list. Please fix it. It's making things take longer, and I can't shop the way I want. So I have to shop the way the app wants me to, and it still has me going back and forth for no reason. If I'm in produce, have me get all the produce items. I don't want to come back! Is it so hard?

OMG it’s been absolutely terrible. The same with DoorDash and UberEats. My acceptance rate has never ever been so low. I just refuse to go those high miles with terrible pay.
