Pros

snacks (...because you're under a lot of stress)

Cons

snacks (so that you'd never leave your desk - no work-life balance), false promises, bait and switch job offers. Red Flags: DoorDash uses some old-school desperate tactics for hiring candidates. They won't tell you this but turnover is very high and they will do just about anything to get you to work for them. Their biggest catchphrases are "perks" and "work-life balance" - but then the trend is that they will use you up, and spit you out and the perks weren't worth getting burnt out. Employees feel very expendable here because of this obvious trend. From the very start, one of the worst examples of this is something they do that is called making an "exploding offer," a job offer where they give the candidate a very short deadline for acceptance -- as little as less than an hour to sign a contract that they've never read after being offered a job. People quit easily to find better opportunities

Pros

You make tips and get to shop at a lot of stores. More areas are open for delivery. You don't go far and have specific zones, like cities, you stay in usually. They give you a special tier of being a Dasher when you're doing the best deliveries, they're called tiers from silver to gold to platinum. Platinum gives you the dash now button allowing you to dash whenever.

Cons

Sometimes the delivery will get marked as if you didn't deliver the item and it gets put on you. There's sometimes drastic waits between orders. The restaurant may be closed or out of the thing the customer ordered. You can't decline order or else the acceptance rating goes down and you'll lose the certain requirements to be a higher tier driver.
