Pros

I'm an onboarding engineer at Lyft. People here are very honest, friendly, and enthusiastic about their jobs, that's one of the biggest reason why I joined Lyft. Communication was fast as people repond quickly to emails. Can't complain on compensation and employee perks :)

Cons

San Francisco HQ seemed to have reached its capacity, looking forward to moving to a bigger space.

Pros

Really interesting work with a really smart team. You will be given a lot of responsibility from the day you join and opportunities to be very impactful

Cons

sometimes things are a little chaotic due to the nature of it being a high intensity work environment. There isn't that much direction a lot of time, but different people will thrive or fail in that environment

Pros

As a data scientist at Lyft, I get to own an important algorithm. My work directly affects the company's success, in an objective and measurable way. The company's culture encourages ownership and innovation. it's about bottom-line results, and how I achieve them is entirely up to me. Lyft is a great workplace if you want to own an important piece of the product and take responsibility for its success.

Cons

The office is in San Francisco.
