      Pros

      My favorite part about the company is still the people & culture they foster! Very collaborative, supportive, and challenging. Never a dull day.

      Cons

      Politics and reorgs are still too pervasive. Would be great to see some of the senior leaders (Directors / Sr. Directors / VPs) get some more executive coaching.

      Pros

      Transparent, great people to work with, a lot to learn, great company values, the company really pushes for their employees to succeed, they have great benefits. PTO for full time workers is unlimited and for hourly workers the pto is still pretty good. Last time I was there they had free lunches and credit for Lyft but I think that has changed now. They have good health benefits. The environment is really welcoming. Full stocked kitchen, team building exercises, funds for holiday and cultural parties. You really feel like you are a part of something big, and everyday is exciting, fun and inspiring. Everyone there was a big family with similar shared values. You were encouraged to be yourself. I really enjoyed my time at Lyft and I would go back given the opportunity. Everyone was responsible for they work they did.

      Cons

      They give their employees a lot of work. One of the operations exec was really arrogant, rude and condescending to others. Upper management seriously lacks diversity. In fact the whole company lacks diversity. You will only find diversity in the hourly jobs. Sometimes things can be very disorganized, and chaotic not in a good way but in a very bad way. Lyft is not pro-active instead they tend to follow behind Uber, which was very discouraging because this company has potential. They hired a lot of people in upper management who had no idea what they were doing here. Cramped office space that often made things awkward at times. There were communication problems within the company.

      Great People, Subpar Management

      Pros

      Truly some of the best people I've ever worked with. It's an exciting time for the product and the company is in hyper growth so there is a lot to do and a lot to learn.

      Cons

      Management is not the best at all levels. Transparency is extremely low for everything from high level questions about diversity all the way to personal development and reviews.
