Pros

- Awesome & supportive team - Surrounded by smart driven people - Perks are amazing. Uber credits, free lunches breakfasts, and dinner. - Not as much politics as you wold expect for a tier 1 engineering company. - Still feels like a startup, and everyone hustles appropriately.

Cons

- Some people expect Uber to be at the same organization level as a Facebook or a Google, but we are still so young and that leads some people to just complain about dumb things about quality of food or lack of process. - Some people are here just waiting for an IPO and not because they are passionate about Uber.

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
