Our Values In Action
Our values guide the way we work, inform everything we do, and make us unapologetically DoorDash.
Be An Owner
No problem is too big, too small or outside of our scope. We all jump in and help.
Dream Big, Start Small
We take small ideas and help them grow, using data and rigorous testing.
Choose Optimism, And Have A Plan
Positive thinking brings people along and helps us achieve ambitious, often unreasonable goals. We choose optimism, especially when things are tough.
Bias For Action
In a fast-paced world, the only way to predict the future is to invent it. We launch solutions quickly, test them and make changes as needed because growth compounds.
Operate At The Lowest Level Of Detail
We aspire to know the lowest level of detail so we can make progress on the things that are critical to our business and our Consumers.
And, Not Either/Or
We’re not satisfied picking between options or sacrificing one thing for another, rather we engineer a way to do both.
Truth Seek
We’re not afraid to dig in and uncover the truth, even if it’s scary or inconvenient. We use data and common sense to solve problems.
1% Better Every Day
Our goal isn’t perfection; it’s constant and never-ending improvement. We look for opportunity, share feedback and celebrate a growth mindset.
Customer-Obsessed, Not Competitor Focused
We focus on our Consumers and our performance, staying connected to the people we serve and learning from them every day.
Make Room At The Table
We’re committed to growing and empowering a more diverse and inclusive community. We believe that true innovation happens when everyone has the tools, resources and opportunity to thrive.
Think Outside The Room
We strive to be as inclusive as possible and consider those who may not be in the room when making decisions.
One Team, One Fight
We’re in this together, and both success and failure are shared. We are intentional about creating a high-accountability, no-blame culture.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI)
When everyone feels welcomed, supported, and valued, we’re able to achieve more than we ever thought possible. To help empower equal outcomes and “make room at the table” for everyone to participate, we have company-wide strategies and a holistic action plan in motion as we build a workforce reflective of our communities, our customers, and our values. We’re proud of how far we’ve come, but our work is never done.
Employee Resource Groups
One of the ways we’re fostering a greater sense of belonging is through our employee resource groups (ERGs). They provide opportunities for us to connect and learn from one another, plus help us transform the way we think.
