Pros

good earning, for a while, until the covid hit the team is quite efficient, and to be honest it would not be a bad place to work at. The data we have access there is front of the line and the skills would be transferrable to most of the data analyst jobs out there

Cons

I dont think it could happen at a worse time for someone who just started their career in the past two years. The layoff and the subsequent difficulties that come with covid are not entirely lyft's fault but it doesnt help with the reemployment either

Pros

Lyft has a culture of getting work done. No matter what. It's people are reliable and fun to work with. When we were back at the office, the culture was great!

Cons

Lyft hasn't diversified or set themself up for success in 2020. They are laying people off and putting more work on folks who are there. People are burning out quick.

Pros

- Smart and affable clients. - Company takes diversity seriously (though other reviewers disagree). - Offices and food were nice. - Senior management was engaged.

Cons

-Legal department is cliquey internally, and also isolated from the rest of the company. Advancement is unclear, and teams are middle-heavy. -Little to no process, RACI basically ad hoc. Given the risks built into product/business model, without clear RACI (or at least without clear adoption thereof) too much devolves into CYA. - That CYA is tedious and critical, as other teams will scapegoat when their projects aren't going smoothly. - The deadline is always yesterday, the new initiative you're being asked to consult on will start on "oh we actually kind of already started," and is being lead by someone probably.
