Uber Data Science reviews

Despite all the events over the last month, I see every day a truly incredible place where every single person can have tremendous impact. Uber holds itself to a high bar, and it certainly isn't perfect. But it's still a great place. Uber has gotten larger, which just means I can't speak to every place in the company from first-hand knowledge. But from what I've seen with my own eyes in my area, the environment has been remarkably supportive, energizing, and positive. I've been at other companies where the environment was actually _systematically_ problematic, so perhaps my spectrum for judging company cultures is different from all the press we're getting. But that is not Uber. There's a remarkably high degree of transparency here, and a remarkably low degree of BS. Uber is under quite a lot of scrutiny, and in part that's a consequence of the company's success. The company has increased in size several-fold, and the culture is still growing up. Again, I can only speak to my own experience, but I've loved Uber from the moment I've joined and every day since, for the problems I work on, for the people I work with, for the trajectory I'm afforded, for the technical areas I have the opportunity to master, for the richness of the data, for the mission of the company, and for the company's earnest desire to always be improving. This place is for real, and the growth is real.

We are working on super interesting projects and people are highly encouraged to own their own projects and take charge. There is a high potential to grow and learn both because senior members are very good at what they do and are open to mentoring and teaching junior employees and because you are dropped into hard projects and learn how to do advanced things through trial by fire. People are really smart and passionate about what they do which makes for a great experience as long as you have a good manager. Like all companies, your work is hugely determined by how good your manager is and I've seen some of the best and worst at Uber. The company takes care of you interms of benefits (food, gym, swag).
