#HEREFORPRIDE

Pride isn’t a color or a flavor of the month. It isn’t the latest trend or showing the world you’re ‘woke’. It’s about representation and not just for the moment, but something that is an innate part of our value system and beliefs. At Dunzo, we have always strived to…

Humans of Dunzo

“I feel that the last 4 years at Dunzo have really nurtured a sense of growth and maturity in me. The folks at Dunzo who initially joined the team (including me) were kids right out of college and so you can imagine the early days had that “college vibe”, where work was super hectic but it was accompanied by cricket in the lawn and hallways, music sessions, table tennis and getting yelled at by neighbors for sometimes (read: always) being noisy. That pretty much summed up the first year at Dunzo. By the second year, we had grown massively and I got to work with more smart, talented people from across the industry. I learned core operations and what having a data-driven approach means in the logistics business. I still remember the night when we first hit our 500 orders milestone for night operations and the journey to reach that number was not an easy one. Staying relentless on our promise with every single order has been the cornerstone of the work I’ve done here. My current role is perhaps the most challenging of all and I love the thrill of conquering those challenges every day. I’m so proud of how far we’ve come, but I’m even more proud of the fact that who we are and what we stand for remains unchanged”.

And so, we set out building a story about Auro — a young writer, and his furry little friend — George. For those of you who haven’t yet, do pause here and take a few minutes to watch the film, for the discussions that follow are rife with spoilers.

Humans of Dunzo

“I remember applying for an internship at Dunzo, some time post finishing my engineering. I landed an internship for the role of Data Tagging which was an extremely manual task but the fun culture of Dunzo, especially the early #457 days totally made up for the monotony. Back then it needed one person to manually “feed” a bunch of data for different categories which is what get’s auto-tagged today. After that, I worked in Community Operations but in my mind, I knew I always wanted to end up as a designer. I juggled a design course along with the super demanding schedule of operations at Dunzo. When I got the chance of moving to QA on the engineering side, I thought “why not?!” and especially after running so many orders and monitoring users, I think I came with a lot more on-ground, real-time insight into what users faced. I had almost completed my design course by then and was looking to do something in design. Working at Dunzo is a lot like working with clay — you can mold your journey and create these different roles along the way. It’s barely been 5 months in my new role and not only am I designing it, but owning the entire Product Page for Dunzo web. That to me is a dream come true.”

Keeping You And Our Partners Safe

When it matters the most With home deliveries playing an integral role in us maintaining social distancing, we had to ensure the safety of our delivery partners who are now the lifelines of our society. Keeping this in mind we had to take some precautionary measures, starting with sending out clear communications to our partners and merchants around social distancing and hygiene. Here are some of the step we had adopted to ensure that our deliveries are safe: Protective gear for our partners Masks and gloves have been provided to our delivery partners for their safety. Sanitizers at key locations We identified key merchant locations and provided stations with hand sanitizers for our partners to use. Temperature checks to ensure safety Our delivery partners take regular temperature checks and are advised to maintain social distancing. No contact delivery To ensure the safety of our users and partners, we have no contact delivery as an option. Encouraging the use of Aarogya Setu app Partners have been asked to download the Aarogya Setu app, the contact-tracing app built by the Indian government, to help them assess their risk of catching the Coronavirus, on the basis of user’s interactions with others, using Bluetooth technology. Maybe you like to read a book or maybe you like to dance while you cook, the best that we can all do is to stay indoors and stay safe. It may not be easy, but if you feel there’s something we could do to make it a little easier to get through these times, you can always count on your friendly neighbourhood delivery app. Stay in. Stay safe!
