      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.

      People are great, fun environment, weak HR

      Pros

      The people are incredible, and the main reason to be in the office. With a handful of exceptions, everyone is smart, caring, and wants the company to succeed. It is a very open culture with blameless incident review process within Engingeering.

      Cons

      It can be a hard place to navigate and move up if you don't have a good manager (I don't). HR is fairly useless if you want to switch teams and are being roadblocked by your manager. Recruiting is also extremely understaffed and not very effective at getting talent through the pipeline. Compensation across the org is a bit low.
