Pros

- Smart people - Fast pace - Great leadership - Awesome benefits - Tightly knit teams/company Working for a company that is driven by a vision that every employee shares makes working a pleasure. People here work hard and are great at getting things done. It also helps that we all use our application multiple times a week so we understand the product that we're building.

Cons

- As a company that is growing exponentially (global reach and it's personnel), we're constantly faced with new challenges in scaling people and processes, and although handling growing pains is well executed, it requires constant communication that sometimes isn't perfectly executed. - You'll get pushed to work hard and get a lot done. If you can't keep up with the work, it will impact your work-life balance.

Pros

This is an incredibly mission oriented fast placed environment. Everyone is so willing to help and no one shies away from hard problems. When fires come up (and it is a small startup so we have fires) everyone jumps on and solves the problems. Everyone feels a real passion for the mission and there is a true belief that we have an opportunity to build a better global transportation system.

Cons

It's a young company and a lot of the communication and process could be streamlined. It takes a lot of work to get up to speed and understand what is going on. There are a ton of things to work on and it can be hard to prioritize the most urgent work from good long term investments.

Pros

Make own hours Work as much as you want to Uber gave me so much freedom and an hourly wage in the high 20's when I couldnt find a job.

Cons

Mileage pay rate has been decreasing due to competition with Lyft Putting so many miles on car Occasional taxi standoffs Another con is that customers cannot tip through the app. Sooooo many more customers would tip drivers if they could and it would keep drivers happy even with lowered rates.
