Pros
- DoorDash does a great job hiring. The people there are truly the best and brightest. But they get burnt out quickly or move on to better opportunities due to the lack of leadership and being treated poorly - Strong business plan and company direction. The goals are lofty and often seem difficult to achieve, but DoorDash always finds a way. Always impressed with how quickly DoorDash could make things happen. - Competitive pay - Friendly office culture, with two free meals a day when in office pre COVID (lunch and dinner)
Cons
- Terrible leadership below the C-Suite. Zero experience with "people leadership". Very much a boys club that plays favorites. Disappointing because there is such talent at lower levels. - High turnover caused by leadership's failure to fix problems leads to everyone doing the work of 2+ people - No investment in personal development or career growth - Worst work life balance I've ever had. Enterprise role is incredibly autonomous, to a fault. Never feel support from those above, you are left out to dry and deal with problems from difficult merchants and blamed when things go wrong, even if you raise your hand early and ask for support (which never comes). Leadership does nothing to help elevate the org and solve problems cross functionally. Left this job needing therapy. Not an exaggeration.
