Pros

-benefits are good -some cool people -catered food -good snacks

Cons

- managers that from day 1 treat you like trash. I had a girl on my team that told me my first week to look out because he hates females. Constantly berated and screamed at until I was in tears. Always looking for what you’re doing wrong. Always looking for a reason to fire you and firing you for doing something that multiple people in the office are doing including management -HR that does nothing if you complain

Pros

I had some reservations about joining Uber given the issues raised in 2017 but they have done a major course correction and seriously cleaned up their act. The place is tremendously diverse and full of very high caliber workers. Management does a great job of communicating and being as transparent as possible. As a woman I feel unlimited and hugely supported in my career. I appreciate that they acknowledge the bad stuff in 2017 really happened and they don't try to sweep it under the rug or deny it. They have faced it and are making real and positive change.

Cons

[my diamond shoes are too tight] with such a supportive, friendly environment I spend a lot of time in group community service activities and celebrating peoples birthdays, Uberversaries, and accomplishments. It's a bad place to be a curmudgeon. [All these 50's won't fit in my wallet] They feed us constantly. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks up-the-wazoo, team celebrations (see above), Pops Ups with custard, yogurt, churros. This is a terrible place to diet.

Pros

People are energetic and passionate about the product. Everyone works very hard, and I found myself working more than just 40 hours a week just because I loved what I did. I felt like I was growing with the product I was working on. No complaints on benefits either. Was recently affected by the layoffs, so the UX team and leadership is different than what it was before. I don't think they will be expanding UX any time soon.

Cons

I was definitely underpaid but that was the tradeoff I made because the projects were so fascinating. Layoffs were pretty traumatic for people involved. Leadership still trying to get their bearings.
