Pros

Uber's business is growing at a tremendous pace, not only is that good for the companies value, but it also provides employees with lot's of opportunity to grow in their careers. The mission of the company is clear, and the leadership is truly committed to the mission. Leadership is committed to the mission of the company, the mission is clear. This is a company of execution and action. Compensation seems fair. They tend to go high on equity and lower on salary, depending on your personal financial situation this could also be a con.

Cons

Definitely some politics, and not so great people who got through the door, however this part of the reality of a high growth company. Some teams, definitely not all, don't have the best work life balance. High pressure environment, comes along with the pro of the company being execution and actionable. There is a fair amount of politics, and people who are "coasting" due to the rapid company growth.

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
