Despite companies marketing gig work as flexible, the pressure to meet metrics and minimum acceptance rates often traps workers in a rigid structure, like traditional jobs.
"It doesn't feel much like I'm on contract. You can't DoorDash whenever you want to unless you're at the top Platinum Tier." This reflects the sentiments of many gig workers.

Companies like DoorDash emphasize flexibility, but they also impose restrictions through acceptance rates and performance metrics that undermine the independence workers expect.
