      Best place for those who get bored at Google

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Company is growing at an incredible rate - Much higher rate of personal career growth possible than at Google or Facebook - Business directly touches the physical world instead of making money through ads - High impact projects - Hybrid between a startup and large company - Monthly Uber credits and free rides home from work late at night

      Cons

      - Company currently caught in a negative press cycle that seems to feed itself - Offices not as nice as Google or Facebook (At least until the new HQ is built) - Work hours in the 50-60 hours week range instead of the 30-35 hours week range at Google / Facebook

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Uber is currently investing a lot in current employees with access to job training and employee education. Free snacks and lunch. Office is based on San Francisco.

      Cons

      It has to provide access to job training because many individuals do not know how to do their jobs. There are many folks who have been with the company for years, and classic startup, have been promoted to management roles without spending the time actually getting the necessary experience. There are many managers who are first time managers. This leads to chaos, a lack of organization and inability to take action on behalf of their teams and fix issues. Teams are over worked and under compensated. Reorgs are constant. Teams are not encouraged to work together across orgs. Promotions are given based on friendship and how long you've been at the company, not talent, success or ability.

      Good potential but really poor engineering leadership

      Pros

      Good learning opportunities for new engineers. Lots of latent business potential. Flexibility in moving across teams expands horizons Good benefits like 401k, health insurance etc

      Cons

      Engineering leadership is very weak and nontechnical Attrition is high on teams like payments. The management team has not been able to hire top talent A really weak CTO, non technical VPE
