Pros

DoorDash is growing fast either on company size or on its business. Things are moving fast too. Company and teammates encourage the culture to give feedback on everything and the ownership of product. Working hours are flexible. You decide what to do and when to do as long as teammates are positive on these contributions. You will want to run fast because everyone surrounding is fast. The Internal infrastructure tool chains are pretty good too. With them you can have environments for developments within 1-2 days. You will have contribution right after joining the company without suffering from getting configuration done. Benefits are very good too. Buffet lunch are provided everyday. Reimbursements for parking and transportation are provided. Sequoia Swift Benefit is used to provide dental / vision and medical benefits. You can set them on your own.

Cons

Too many things to do and almost everything needs negotiation. Sometimes there are many context switch in one day. It's not really a con but an evidence the company is growing and needing more workforce. It just requires more effort from you to prioritize things

DoorDash is a fast growing company, the core value of being an owner is true. They allow you to really act as an owner, make an impact and be heard. They also serve a great lunch and dinner in the office daily.

Pros

- You can learn a lot, fast if you're lucky to have a leader who is invested in you - Catered lunch and dinner when working - Full health coverage - Open vacation policy

Cons

- Hardly any CEO presence. He means well, but isn't inspiring - Lacking in experienced senior leadership leading to lack of direction - Extremely male dominated. Very fratty environment most of the time - Lots of young and arrogant people being promoted to senior/director roles who just want to run the show - Talk about improving diversity, but not much gets done about it - Overall culture isn't great. Each person/team is out for themselves most of the time - Commuting to downtown SF is a pain. Could offer better commuter benefits - This is coming from an internal employee-- Drivers really aren't treated fairly or set up for success!!! Train and pay them better and they will do a better job!
