Pros

they revamped their salary and equity structure once employees started leaving amidst all of the self-inflicted turmoil in 2017. so some employees received hefty adjustments upward to align with the bottom of the market equivalent bands. early employees were able to keep what became a generous (generous because of non-retro changes that were made) Uber credit benefit to be used for rides & meals. you get to work with some very smart, capable, driven-by-ambition young people who foresee themselves achieving great things elsewhere.

Cons

Zero work /life balance. Internal politics are rife with domain protection and territory management in order to achieve career growth. Total focus on individual achievement and some toxic team dynamics depending on which org you work in. Fringe benefits (meals, Uber credits, (un)limited vacation, facilities, training opportunities) are 2nd class. Institutional sexism and ageism, with less and less transparency as issues are bubbled up to the surface. This has created a cover-up culture that spends heavily on spin and PR. Huge technical debt across several organizations.

Pros

Smart people, challenging work. Real effort to improve as a company. You can feel it, you can see it...

Cons

Transitioning from a startup to an IPO right now. Changes might not be for everyone, but if you're up for a challenge, this is not a con at all

Pros

- People are genuinely good, smart and passionate about the company and changing the world (when I meet up with folks who left, they always speak about how they miss the company and teams, they see it as a badge of honor to have worked there) - You have lots of impact on what you do. You get to build! - Lots of changes happening especially after 2017. The company is making important strides to be better for employees, driver partners and riders. Final note - - Uber employees are some of the most passionate and resilient people in the world, especially after a very tough 2017. Things are definitely in place for the company to be the best place to work at. Excited for its future.

Cons

- Leaders can be young and inexperienced. - Sometimes things are done too hastily (e.g., selling off business operations in other regions) with little planning considerations for impacts to employees.
