- POLITICS (even if you try to avoid them you are negatively impacted)
- Bad hires: In the beginning I think Uber hired a lot of great talent and good people but now it is growing so fast that they are not hiring well, and they are hiring a ton of jerks that do not care about the people or culture and make people feel like you should just be lucky to work at Uber. It's sad - a lot of good talented people are being treated poorly and no one seems to care.
- No work life balance: expect to work all day, everyday and weekends and to feel like you are still not doing enough
- No real recognition: Even if you work 24/7 and are good at what you do expect to be told you aren't doing enough and to wonder why you aren't being taken care of financially. This is leading to burn out and vets of the company leaving
- Trust: Everyone is out to protect themselves and will throw you under the bus to look good really quickly, no one trusts anyone anymore
