Doordash doing silent layoff 🚨🚨🚨

Heard Doordash is doing silent layoff through PIP after Mid Year Perf evaluation. A bunch of people I interviewed from Doordash recently confirmed that the management is engaging in silent layoff through fake perf reviews after Mid Year and Year End to scare engineers and visa holders and create work for HR and recruiters to backfill the headcount. Is it true ?

Backfill the headcount? Isn’t this more expensive?

Stategy might be to reduce comp of backfill

Nah. They are low-balling new hires and downleveling everyone to sde 2.

Now, I think we should start listing down companies like these and please add LinkedIn to that list.

Uber ssssrtrtr OP Oct 22, 2023

Yeah. They are trying to replace workers with downleveling and cheap engineers.

Amazon vXpu55 Oct 22, 2023

It is correct. Doordash is doing silent layoff through making fake perf evaluations

Flexport OP here Oct 22, 2023

Do you work at doordash ?

Amazon vXpu55 Oct 22, 2023

A friend of mine worked there. They laid off at least 5 persons so far as he knows

DoorDash crug Oct 22, 2023

What does fake perf evaluations even mean?

Uber ssssrtrtr OP Oct 22, 2023

Saying people are fired for performance when in reality they are laying off people

DoorDash crug Oct 22, 2023

Realistically we need another 20% cut, a lot of engineers are not performing to the level. I don’t mind calling it perf review or layoff

DoorDash pKYE66 Oct 22, 2023

This is such bull.

People are confirming this and calling it out. Shame on your CEO Tony Xu for torturing engineers with such cruel practices. Call it a layoff if you have the balls. Don't label humans as low performers and fire them using a force bucket.
