Mediocre experience at a company that makes questionable top-down decisions

Regional merchant lead

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good relationships Good opportunity to gather selling experience

Cons

Toxic work culture No room for growth Empty promises of growth Unattainable goaling that is inconsistent the org and within teams Job is 40% account management 60% net new selling (but solely goaled on selling net new accounts) Actual account management department within the org is a disaster Laid off hundreds of account managers in Nov'22 when there was a already a lack of account managers - the company was aware that this would affect its sellers' performance as the account management role would pour over into their day to day. Instead of lowering goaling expectations at that point, the org decided to increase goaling expectations quarter over quarter. Increasing client load while decreasing account management work force is a recipe for disaster as this ship continues to shrink.

Dash now was great, Scheduling Dash cuts income down to almost zero?

Business Outlook

Pros

I am forced to work only when I can schedule it. This greatly limits my income, and the only area I can work is Malibu with an area of bad phone reception so it shows me being late even when I'm on time. I am a top Dasher ratings wise.Very high ratings but your limits make me feel uninspired about Door Dash. Very unfair that I now have to dash over 100 a month to become a dash now dasher. Your competition does not restrict me like that.

Cons

I am forced to work only when I can schedule it. This greatly limits my income almost to zero.

Great growth, bad work life balance

Business Outlook

Pros

A lot of opportunities to learn and grow as an engineer quickly. Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Luck of the draw when it comes to mentorship. If you don't have a good on-boarding experience it may feel like you're left to drown. A good experience at DoorDash is dependent on your manager.
