Pros

- Some of the sharpest, most dedicated folk in the world - An immense impact on your community you can see in real-time - Lots of career growth opportunities and fluidity within and between roles - Strong leaders and minimal politics - Opportunity to speak up and be heard - Frequent travel with amazing experiences

Cons

- Can be stressful juggling so many knives at once - Long hours not mandated, but common - Working with consumer-facing product makes it challenging to have normal conversations outside work (every day is a customer support session) - For the amount of work we do, pay is (surprisingly) not mind-blowing

Completely agree with your advice! We're having a big impact on the cities we serve but it's important we're strategic and thoughtful in working on the highest-impact, highest-reward projects that benefit our riders and drivers. Thanks for the review and keep it up.

Pros

Workload is fairly light compared to other areas of the company. If you play your cards right, this is much less than a 9-to-5 job if you're good at acting like you're working during the day. In addition, no one checks your work in this office. This is a byproduct of most colleagues being completely checked out and not having the mental capability to understand anything beyond basic arithmetic. For what it's worth, some of the benefits are nice. You get 15 free trips up to $15 a month, and lunch is served every day. The office is also in a great location, so it's nice to meet up with friends after work.

Cons

Most of middle management is completely incompetent. This is because the competent individuals have left for HQ, so only mediocrity is left. This office also promotes heavily based on seniority, so if you're neither, I recommend you look for another job. Surviving in this office has nothing to do with merit. It is more important to fall in line than to do anything substantial. Keep your head down, act like your boss is God's gift to the world, and find a way to set yourself up for a successful transfer after the 6 months.
