Pros
* Lots of smart people to learn from and opportunities solve difficult problems. The initial learning curve is steep but resulted in intense knowledge gain. First class tech stack to work in with powerful tools to help you be productive. * Freedom to work on projects you find interesting if you can prove it will be impactful. Relatively little red tape in starting a project once you have validated that it will be useful and provide value to fellow engineers or users. * Much improved work life balance from what I hear it was like in 2015 and 2016. You’re measured on impact more than time spent in the office. This is true with time off and working remotely as well. * People here are genuinely interested in developing a positive and inclusive culture and learning from the mistakes of past.
Cons
Uber is still trying to establish a new culture by incorporating what made the old Uber successful while making the changes needed to become a world class tech company. This new culture hasn’t quite taken hold yet, but the majority of the company is getting behind it.
