Pros
They're still pro remote work. Great for learning about the fundamental unfairness of life at a deeper level. You learn a lot about politics. The phrase perception is reality will be hammered into your bones and tattooed to your nerves.
Cons
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.
