To celebrate Juneteenth and honor our commitment to address food insecurity – an issue that disproportionately impacts the Black community – yesterday our team participated in a company-wide Day of Action. We rolled up our sleeves and served generously by volunteering at several Feeding America local food banks, including SF-Marin Food Bank, Atlanta Community Food Bank, City Harvest, Three Square Food Bank. Our teams also packed backpacks for kids with Hamilton Families and volunteered with SF City Impact to cook meals and create hygiene kits, among other activities. Together we packed and distributed over 70,000 pounds of food for 20,000 families! We believe that we have a shared responsibility to lean into the opportunities where we can make an impact, and for us, that’s focusing on combating food insecurity in the communities we live and work in....Show more

We're celebrating our 10-year anniversary! As much as we’ve accomplished over our first decade — including delivering 859 million bananas! — we’re even more excited for what’s to come: helping retailers and brand partners grow their businesses, building a more connected online and offline consumer experience, and making grocery shopping less transactional and more inspirational and personal. As part of this milestone, our CEO Fidji Simo penned a blog post reflecting on Instacart's growth and momentum to-date and the our ambitious vision for the next 10 years. The piece chronicles major moments in grocery history and highlights the important role technology has to play in grocery’s continued evolution. It’s been quite a decade - here’s to the next 10!...Show more

"Instacart Hired Me When I Was 9 Months Pregnant. While most women (including me) worry about switching jobs during their pregnancies, Instacart made it really comfortable for me to make a move. When an Instacart recruiter reached out to me over LinkedIn, I was upfront with my pregnancy as I was in my third trimester. The recruiter joyously replied to me with a positive note that Instacart would happily consider my candidacy and I would be eligible for their generous maternity and parental benefits. My interview and the interviewers were non-biased and the whole recruitment process went just as normal as it could be. I knew at that time that I'm stepping into a great cultured company. I joined and worked at Instacart for 4 weeks before I went on my maternity leave. Despite this short duration, my manager and the whole team made me feel welcome and inclusive. Thanks to Instacart's generous maternity benefits, I could cherish my time with my baby without any financial worries. After 9 months of my leave, I'm thrilled to join back my team and work on products to make an impact." ...Show more

In honor of International Women’s Day, we’re proud to celebrate all of the incredible women that make up the Instacart community and to share this important conversation with our CEO Fidji Simo. Fidji recently sat down with New York Magazine’s The Cut for an in-depth conversation on her career milestones, setbacks along the way, and how these lessons have shaped the way she leads today. She expands on how teams can benefit from showing more vulnerability in the workplace, and the power that can come from being flexible on the journey, but inflexible on the destination.

Mud Bay

Elsa Wulff opened the doors of the first Mud Bay store in 1988 believing two things: People should feel welcomed and happy they visited, and she had a duty to graciously help everyone who came to the store—even if it didn’t result in a sale. What began as a single store opened by Elsa just outside Olympia, Washington, is now the largest pet retailer headquartered in the Pacific Northwest. And we’re still tightly focused on creating a culture that makes all feel welcome, while creating a helpful experience for everyone who visits us. Our responsibility to be gracious doesn’t stop at our customers—we also want the best for our people, too. That’s why we’ve worked together to create an employee stock ownership plan to contribute to a meaningful career and secure financial future for all Muddies. And today, the people who work at Mud Bay continually make the commitment to one another to build a strong, lasting company we’re all proud to work for.
