      Positive experience despite negative press

      Pros

      - Uber has hired some of the best people in the industry. I've never worked with more intelligent and driven people. - Compensation, perks, and benefits were very competitive with companies of similar size. - The technology stack has matured considerably after some initial growing pains. Engineers can provision infrastructure and build/deploy services without excessive red tape. - Surprisingly strong, positive cultural values. They are really woven into every day work–used as hashtags, referenced by leadership, etc. Most other companies just create a list of cultural values and forget them.

      Cons

      - Uber has a bad reputation and is constantly the subject of controversy, protests, and negative press. While Uber is not perfect, I do believe the company has matured since its early years and leadership does take these matters seriously from what I've seen. If you can't handle seeing a negative headline about your employer, Uber may not be for you, but for those that can handle it and want to make a positive impact on our culture and reputation, this shouldn't be an issue. - Teams and people can shift around frequently as the company continues to grow. This is probably a good thing overall for the company but it can feel jarring at times. - People work hard–not necessarily because of deadlines but because many of their coworkers are smart, driven, and hard-working people so the bar is set high (that's my experience at least). This is ultimately what you make of it–many people stay late but many people also get into work past 10:00am. Remote work is pretty flexible too which is a plus.

      Thanks for the review and for joining us for the ride! While we're a fast-moving company and there's been constant change, I think some of the changes you'll see from the P&P org in the coming months will make Uber a better place to work for everyone. Keep up the great work!

      Pros

      Free daily meals, free snacks. Wonderful Office, great employees. Parking is wonderful. Benefits prior to 2016 were awesome

      Cons

      Management is horribly uneducated on the work that we do. Consistent changes of information without proper notification. The leader of the COE is an egomaniac with poor people skills. The work performed is not equal to the pay that we receive.

      Pros

      Zero. They rip off everyone and are dishonest.

      Cons

      It's all downside. Shadiest company I've ever seen.
