Worst onboarding and really bad internal tooling (WEB)

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation, benefits and company values are really good

Cons

Onboarding is non-existent for web developers, internal tooling has poorly documented or even misleading references. Managers are not technically capable of evaluating performance for web devs. Documentation is scattered, non-indexed and verbose. Basic project management practices are also rare to be found.

Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation is great, especially with the company recently announcing profitability

Cons

As a software engineer, the trend seems to be that hiring is only growing overseas - so in Europe and India. Not a lot of internal mobility in the US. Depending on the team, but oncall at Uber is super stressful since there are not many great models to follow to have oncalls be more sustainable for engineers. Managers seem to lack vision and micro-manage as well.
