Pros

Unprecedented amounts of freedom and independence. You are basically able to run your own start-up, but you have access to the company's know-how and budget. Very close collaboration between cities, knowledge sharing is great, you can always ask for help and receive great advice. Managers are leaders rather than bosses. Great examples come from the top and trickle down to the rest of organization. You get to work with some of the smartest, most hard working people in the world. Learning curve is basically vertical.

Cons

You are not going to see your friends and family very often. This job is extremely demanding, so definitely not for everyone. You have to be ok, with the controversies surrounding the company and occasional hostility from people in your social circles.

Pros

I have the best team and I am constantly challenged to solve new and interesting problems. The nature of the business makes for a very unique set of challenges but also leads to a lot of growth opportunities. Given all of our growth, it's a very fun and exciting atmosphere. We're changing the world and I am so proud to be a part of it!

Cons

The hours are sometimes long but while my manager regularly tells me to take vacation, I enjoy the work that I do. We could just use a few more hands.

Pros

Uber is not for everyone. If you are looking for a place that you can clock in and clock out of at 40-50 a week, move on. Uber is a place for you to obsess over. You will find that most of your thoughts and ideas relate to your work.

Cons

There are very smart people at Uber, but most are very inexperienced. That's not to say the brilliance doesn't shine through, but when it comes to admitting failures on certain initiatives, they are ofter masked with flattery because of maturity level.
