Vantaggi

When I joined a year back, there were quality people with a mission. There was excitement in the work. People who did well got the praises on their own without politics playing any role in it. Free food and drinks all throughout the day.

Svantaggi

All the pros mentioned above are old story. The food quality has gone from bad to worse and it's not even edible anymore. Uber has hired people left, right and center. Managers hire people from their previous companies, either peers or reports, so that they have people to support them. Almost all the managers and higher management guys are super selfish and arrogant. NOBODY thinks about advancing their reports and taking their team together with them. This is what happens when you hire people who have never managed a single person or people who already have a bad reputation at their previous companies and to them, joining Uber seemed a great way to start from a clean slate. Employees are being fed BS by their managers when they ask questions. Loads of politics has just crept into everything and the work culture here sucks. It will not be surprising if they find their talented engineers looking for opportunities outside the company. It's not the same anymore. I really hoped this was it for me, but apparently it's not.

Thank you for your honesty. From an HR perspective, the biggest areas of opporutnity this year is around team and manager development and effectiveness. You raise some serious points -- if you're willing to dig in more on your experience offline I'm happy to pass your feedback and suggestions anonymously up the chain. -Andrew, alevy@uber.com

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
