At DoorDash, we support team members with the tools to ensure that underrepresented identities and perspectives are valued and can thrive. We’ve taken intentional steps in all aspects of our hiring, pay equity and promotion efforts to empower equal outcomes.
While we have dedicated programs to support women employees internally, we’re also partnering with great organizations like Women Who Code, where together we’re pushing toward a world where women are proportionally represented as leaders, executives, board members, software engineers and more.
Our very own Monica Blaylock joined Women Who Code CEO Alaina Percival last year to discuss her career growing up in Portugal, moving to San Francisco for an internship and eventually landing in Berlin as an Engineering Manager as part of the DoorDash team.
For the longest time, Blaylock was resistant to moving into a management role with concerns she’d lose her technical prowess. When she finally did make the jump to management, she found the collaboration and ability to support others in their career journeys just as engaging as the hands-on coding she was accustomed to. Outside of the actual work, she recognized that finding the right company to support her as a working mother was also a top priority. And that’s where DoorDash fit in.
