I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Uber (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2019
Interview
Just so extremely disorganized.
First recruiter re-scheduled call with me minutes after the call was supposed to have already started. She selected a new time and told me she would call me then ...I had to move some stuff around to make it work.
On the phone first recruiter sounded like a bored/tired robot reading from a script. I decided to move forward because I thought maybe it was just a bad recruiter.
The first technical phone screen was fine. Very little dialogue
Then I made it to onsite and was passed over to another recruiter. He was really nice. We scheduled the onsite but then they had to re-schedule it.
They gave me an Uber code to use morning of the onsite but then the morning of the onsite the code did not work.
When at the onsite everyone was friendly but the disorganization was just so pervasive. My last interviewer just did not show up and the recruiter was emailing me to tell me about it as if I am checking my email during an onsite -_- Anyway someone replaced the last interviewer 15 minutes late.
After onsite I heard back pretty quickly but the next steps were poorly executed. I was told the VP approval would take 24-48 hours max and yet it took almost an entire week. I had to email each day to follow up because I had other companies waiting.
There was little room for negotiation with their offer.
I rejected the offer a few weeks ago and yet I am still getting the reminder email to accept my offer from their automated system.
Overall just a very disorganized experience.

Interview
I had a disgusting interview experience. I had applied for the Pricing team at Uber HQ. The hiring manager contacted me and gave and gave me her phone no to call her if I need any help. She told me that she would make me an offer irrespective of my interview performance.
She was a fraud hiring manager.
