      Pros

      The most friendly and rewarding working experience I've ever had! I had the opportunity to work on exciting projects. I collaborated with top engineers and designers in the field. My work had a big impact. Competitive salary and perks. Awesome office space.

      Cons

      If I had to pick one, it might be that everything is moving and changing very quickly due to Lyft's incredible growth.

      Pros

      People bad talk the food but I actually thought it was pretty good. It's fun to tell drivers you work at Lyft.

      Cons

      I've seen just about everything that Uber gets shamed for happen at Lyft: a focus on maximizing revenue by short-changing drivers, sexual harassment, political decision-making structures that make everything a question of who you kiss up to, pressure to work long hours whether or not its productive, management by adult children. The "culture" of Lyft has become a marketing slogan and the founders have made that clear. Side note: As an outsider looking in, the logical approach now is to slash the regional offices pretty drastically, so I'd avoid taking a Lyft job that's not at HQ.
