Vantaggi

Many very smart, motivated people to work with on big problems; if you're on the right team. A very fast pace of change. Nice, albeit overly-flashy, facilities. The best-run IT department I've ever had the pleasure of working with.

Svantaggi

Many of the best engineers have moved on due to the chaotic work environment and management favoritism toward those creating new things, rather than successfully implementing or running things. Middle management is not supportive in any way. Managers will find and latch onto your flaws, using them as justification to keep you from receiving raises, or promotions. Several teams are traps, existing only to provide their manager with headcount, and struggle to find a purpose. There is next to no coaching, and no training. Teamwork is not valued, only delivering new things. New employees receive terrible credit benefits. The catered meals are a trap. There is a pattern to there not being enough seats at any of the cafeterias, so lunch must be taken at your desk, while dinner isn't served until 8:15pm.

Thanks for the thorough review, your candor is appreciated. A few things you mention in your cons are key areas we're working on improving in the P&P org right now. Namely, revamping the Perf process and improving manager training/support are two of the immediate priorities for our org. I'm optimistic our new leadership is making the right moves to make Uber a better place to work for everyone, now and in the many years to come. If you'd ever like to connect offline to dig in more, feel free to reach out: pierce@uber.com. Thanks again for the review and all you do at Uber.

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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
