Pros

The best thing about working here is the fact that you get to solve problems at a very large scale. Every thing you do here is used by millions of people, and pushed to performance limits. Uber has a good onboarding process, including a week of training and weekly sessions that anyone can attend. You get thrown into the fire quickly, and will be asked to solve problems right from the start. This can be stressful at first.

Cons

You'll probably get asked to do things you have no idea how to do, and will be expected to figure it out on your own. You need to be comfortable with putting yourself out there to find answers. You'll probably have a few late nights while getting up to speed.

Pros

Uber has some of the brightest minds working on cutting-edge projects involving all-hands on deck. From world-class deals and litigation that is changing the face of tech-law, to scaling exponential growth and moving globally lightening fast, we work crazy hours sometimes because this is the most exciting place to be! Leaders of the industry in each respective field are working to build a new economy driven by instant consumer input. The best ideas win and the focus is on creating something great. It's inspiring to work here!

Cons

We work longer hours than the typical 9-5 job, but that is because Uber has places to be, people to see, and paradigms to change. Timing is flexible and team communication is open enough to work through any potential timing snafus.

Pros

Uber has been an absolutely amazing place to work. You are given a lot of responsibility out of the gate, just because there is so much work to do which makes it an amazing place to learn and grow in your career. The management is driven and execution focused but also has the vision to see beyond the day to day that could keep Uber busy for years. Uber isn't a cult which is what I've seen at a lot of tech companies but also remains a tight knit community.

Cons

The culture is very competitive (although from what I've seen so far merit based) and if you're looking to work a normal 9 to 5 Uber isn't for you.
