Small 'Wonder': Delivery Workers Protest Deactivations By New Food App Power Player - Streetsblog New York City
Briefly

Over 50 delivery workers have had their accounts deactivated by Grubhub, with the new owner, Wonder, being blamed for the dismissals. The sudden decisions have affected seasoned workers who had previously shown loyalty and reliability. Protests ensue against these actions, which are characterized by worker advocates as unjust, especially as families depend on these incomes. The situation underscores the broader issue of worker treatment in the gig economy, particularly after the implementation of a new minimum wage affecting this vulnerable workforce.
I've worked hard for Grubhub for years. I've done nothing wrong other than work reliably for this company. I do not deserve to be deactivated like this - thrown away by the company like we don't matter at all.
It's ruthless and unjust to just throw workers away like this - and lie about the reasons for it. This is an injustice that also affects hundreds of family members who depend on this income.
