Pros

Despite its tremendous growth, Uber has maintained its amazing culture. Everybody from the CEO to the newest hire needs to be and is encouraged to be an entrepreneur. I have never seen so much ownership and responsibility placed in every person in an organization. Read any job posting - they sound too good to be true, and yet they are all incredibly accurate. The bar is high, expectations are high, and that is incredibly empowering. The work we are doing is changing the world before our eyes, and once you're here you realize that the existing hype isn't even half the story. Hang on - you'll remember this job for the rest of your life.

Cons

This job will be your life - not because your boss is counting your hours, but because you're addicted to Uber. If you're not, don't apply. You're going to be really unhappy and burn out fast. Career opportunities are abundant but not readily identified for you. I couldn't tell you what my next role could be - but I think there will be one. This can be stressful, and it means you need to blaze your own trail a bit.

Pros

Lots of opportunity for growth. The perks are amazing. Everyday is a new learning opportunity. Catered lunches and random company-wide perks. Cool people. Work for an awesome start-up revolutionizing how transportation works.

Cons

Can't think of many cons. It isn't for everyone, there is a lot of work that needs to be done and not enough people to do it so expect to work long hours.

Pros

Super interesting, Crazy talented people to work with. Exposure to so many different aspects of the real world: Regulatory, Media, Operations - what not?

Cons

Working hours are brutal. Very stressful environment in some markets, under-staffed in many departments as the company in hyper-growth mode. Overall - it's an experience to tell your grandchildren about..
