Everything you need to know about #TheStoryGetsBetter -Dunzo’s 3D Animation Short Film —

As Teddy Roosevelt rightly claimed, “The best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing”. #TheStoryGetsBetter — the 3D animation film that we’ve produced in-house, has been exactly that. It’s a labour of love that combines in equal parts — art and heart, skill and soul, hard work and hope. 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. Paying attention to intention Our goal while embarking on the journey of this film was to leave our viewers with an…

Humans of Dunzo

“Close to 2 years back, I tried my hand at several jobs but nobody really wanted to give me one as I was still a student pursuing Bcom. After my father passed away, the responsibility to take care of my mother and my younger sister fell upon me and I almost gave up and planned to return to my hometown to pursue agriculture when I got the chance to work for Dunzo. At Dunzo, I’ve had the chance to learn so much and started off by doing documentation for HR & Legal, picking up and delivering documents, and assisting the admin team. Slowly I also started taking care of the travel desk for a bit and even helped manage Kabeer’s (Dunzo Co-founder & CEO) travels which was all new to me. Today, I work with the legal team as a paralegal supporting all compliance and documentation needed while also balancing a distance education course in Bcom. I’m crazy about cricket when I’m not working and recently learned to make tea during the lockdown. My happiness mantra is to love people and be loved and I have felt it more so with the people I work with at 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”.
