Not a bad place to be given the options out there

Data scientist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Lot of good ICs around. Depending on the team, you can build and learn a lot. You can related to the mission of the company. Large business potential. Good benefits like food, health insurance etc

Cons

Doesn't feel like tech people are first class citizens, more like a PM centered place. Lot of incompetent senior manager and directors with limited prior experience promoted because of playing politics. This has become clear during recent turmoils: not many true leaders, but tons of people who call themselves leader. Recent changes feel like meritocracy has been replaced by a bunch of people on the top serving kool-aid on a regular base.

Uber Response

Thanks for taking the time to leave this review. One major program underway right now is to improve our manager training through programs like UME and Flagship. Feedback has been really positive and they're being expanded and rolled out further over the coming months.
