Pros

Super challenging, all engrossing , intellectual environment with extremely high levels of ownership. You are working for a company that's truly transforming cities across the world and it's an opportunity to create true and direct impact in lives of people. The company has a very transparent and direct culture, and that further promotes the sense of ownership amongst employees at all levels.

Cons

This type of lifestyle is not for everyone. Your life and thought will revolve around Uber, and while some might love this entrepreneurial culture, it might not be the best thing for everyone.

Pros

I've had a very positive experience working here. Since my first day, I've been challenged to step outside my comfort zone and do my best, but I've also always felt heard and supported. I've been trusted to make decisions, take ownership of my work, and contribute in meaningful ways, which made me feel like a valued part of the team from the beginning. The pace is definitely fast, but that's something I really enjoyed. It pushed me to learn something new almost every day and kept the work interesting and rewarding. The people are another reason I've enjoyed working here. I've had the opportunity to work with incredibly talented, collaborative teammates who genuinely support each other. When everyone is willing to help and bring their best, it's amazing how much the team can accomplish together.

Cons

The fast pace isn't for everyone, but if you enjoy solving challenging problems, learning continuously, and taking ownership, you'll likely thrive here.

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
