Have an onsite coming up at #DoorDash. The salary range is solid & the recent earnings call looked great - but I'm worried about the reviews on Blind/Glassdoor that mention long hours, no perks, and office politics. Would you recommend someone join now?
I wonder if engineers are still delivering
Yes, mandatory
4 times a year.
Idk lol
Worked at dd for 5 years and would recommend it. Like any company it entirely depends on which team you’re on, but I had a good time overall with no real WLB issues. I worked a couple of weekends but those were both during pre-IPO and because I felt particularly passionate about the project I was on at the time. Overall though, this place is really tame these days and there are definitely perks so I don’t know why people said there aren’t any Note: speaking from a swe perspective on a product/customer facing eng team. Ops seems to burn the midnight oil quite a lot Note 2: I did notice a slight increase in office politics around the time I left but I would characterize it as minor. People are swimming in the same direction most of the time
WLB is trending better, but not uncommon to see people working super late when there are deadlines. Politics not bad in ads eng
WLB is definitely trending better. It’s a large focus of leadership (at least in my org) to fix the WLB issues, especially oncall
What team?
I'll DM you
👍
Btw long hours are correct 🥹
😭
