Pros
before the racism, the shifts were good and easygoing
Cons
I joined Upshift and immediately started getting shifts and everything was going good — until I worked a banquet server shift at a country club. I’m a black girl and had to prove myself a bit more than the other servers, which I didn’t mind because I have the skill. I was given heavy compliments from management about how hard I was working, and even offered to come back. my work was finished and everyone was on downtime as the event was coming to a close, when one of the managers suddenly asked me why I was talking to my friend and not working in my station. I was only a few feet from my station, where my other coworkers were not, and all my work had been completed. I let her know this, and she walked off. the next day, I received 8 violations from this one country club, all 8 of them completely made up, same thing as my friend. I showed this proof to Upshift, who did not care nor fight for their own Upshifter. they simply took the word of this country club and disabled my account, along with my friend’s. this is the most racist, biased, cruel app I’ve ever had the displeasure of working with. genuinely don’t bother if you are black or brown, they seem to only cater to and protect white workers.
