Pros

They have a hip and cool brand

Cons

The office is like a factory. You will not want to work in their soulless building in SF. And they are 2nd by a long shot in a market that is winner take all. Company doesn't have any long term future IMO

Pros

You can make over $100 per day most of the time and you meet some nice people for the most part.

Cons

They stop paying you what you earn out of nowhere, then play dumb about it. All reps are Indian and very dismissive. The in app gps glitches constantly and sends you everywhere via the interstate, which forces you to spend more on gas. Riders make things up to get a free ride, which leads to the driver getting deactivated.
