DoorDash reviews

If you join, you will suffer. This is by design. It's not the work - though they will overwork you. It's primarily because of the fear-driven toxicity that pervades the culture. Doordash is a system built to shield executives from risk, and push accountability and blame downwards. It is command and control, tops-down, principle of least information. Your coworkers will be your enemies and your managers will throw you under the bus. No one invests in systems, because they've learned how to hide bodies and pin the blame on someone else. It's over-run with MBAs who wield buzzwords like weapons, think anecdotes are silver bullets, and are obsessed with control. Complexity will be oversimplified. Narratives will be managed at every level.

Unfortunately they’ve adopted “goaling” that is a mess and unattainable. Really depends on how lucky you get with your book. You can really get Fed over though with an awful book QoQ. The products my org pushes are outmoded and has a ton of blockers. The job used to be good but over the last year has gotten really awful. I’m doing 2-3 people’s jobs with basically no support. Offering feedback goes nowhere. Good run but it’s come to an end. The company brags about hiring the best from great companies but the truth is they hire upper management from other companies where they couldn’t get promoted so they get a title at DoorDash but aren’t familiar with the landscape at all and it shows daily. There’s also zero growth internally unfortunately. The culture is pretty toxic as well now. There was an “ event” where a VP wrote something awful in slack and then made up an elaborate lie to explain it and also blamed his son 🥴 and was believed by his managers. Very white, very bad culture.
