As a company, DoorDash is committed to delivering good by connecting people and possibility — whether by offering convenience to families, providing flexible work opportunities to help people fulfill their dreams, or bringing new customers to business owners. It is something that has always been intrinsic to our culture and is part of the very fiber of what all of us at DoorDash seek to accomplish for others, and for ourselves, every day. That’s why we’re honored to have recently been recognized as one of San Francisco Business Times’ “Best Places to Work.”
What truly makes DoorDash stand apart are the people within the company. DoorDash is bursting with exceptionally talented, smart, driven people who take ownership in making sure the company succeeds — but most of all they are kind, empathetic and respectful. Employees come into work radiating positive energy and a connection to our values that the entire company thrives on. It’s one of the traits I noticed most during my first couple of months at DoorDash, and that contributes to our impact as a brand that delivers good. If we can stand behind these values internally and build a business where employees are inspired and energized to come to work, we’ll be more successful as a team and a better company overall.
This recognition comes as the company is continuing a year of high growth, expanding into new markets and hiring more than 200 new team members across the US and Canada. While we’re growing quickly, we remain focused on our employees and this award is a testament to those efforts. DoorDash was founded to help people thrive in the digital economy and help entrepreneurs achieve their goals, so it’s clarifying to see the same determination, heart and soul delivered inside the walls of our offices.
If you’re interested in joining the DoorDash team, check out our open positions — we’d love to hear from you! It would be awesome to deliver good — together!
