      Concerned

      Pros

      Coworkers are great, some very inspiring people walking the halls. Lot's of nice collaboration. Folks really care about the company. I still truly believe in the mission with everything I have.

      Cons

      In the last 6-9 months the executive engineering leadership hiring has been really worrying. Lot's of bullying and scatterbrained direction. Reviews are a total blackbox - most times your manager doesn't even know why you got the rating you did. People are scared like I've never seen before.

      Thanks for raising your concerns, they're important to hear. If you'd be willing, I'd like to hear more of your thoughts on the hiring bar and the reviews process. I'd be happy to talk offline and confidentially. -Andrew, alevy@uber.com

      Quality is job zero

      CEO approval

      Pros

      Decent pay. Ability to learn new technologies on company time. Quantity more important than quality. Lots of super-smart and industrious coworkers.

      Cons

      Quantity more important than quality - friends make jokes about the number of Uber app updates for bug fixes. Work environment. Travel arrangements-roommates? Nasty review system. Poor treatment of contract employees. Huge turnover.
