Pros

Fulfilling work. Focused and hard working culture. Transparent management. Refreshing experience. Fun and warm colleagues. = I've never been happier. And I previously worked at the last two hottest startups in Silicon Valley for the last few years.

Cons

There is nothing that I would specifically consider a "con" of working at Uber. If anything, I'd suggest to management that they hire an executive chef and kitchen staff and build out a full kitchen that serves gourmet breakfast, lunch and dinner. I know this sounds a bit ridiculous, but food is the centerpiece of hacker culture in Silicon Valley, and was central to creating the "magic" at the last two companies I worked at. I think it'd go a long way in attracking and retaining talent. It does at Google, Facebook, Dropbox and Palantir ;)

Pros

-Amazing place to work, where you feel like your work actually makes a direct impact in the performance of the company -High Internal Mobility: Fantastic mentorship and management, where people who demonstrate continued excellence are able to advance into other new and interesting opportunities within the company -Working with some of the smartest people I have ever met -Infectious enthusiasm amongst employees: within your first week of being here, you cant help but drink the kool-aid and become extremely excited about whats being built here. Culturally, everyone brings a lot of passion and intensity, and that type of enthusiasm is contagious

Cons

-If you are looking for a 9-5, then this is not the company for you. have to be willing to work long hours and rapidly produce results

Pros

The absolute best part about working at Uber is the exceptional caliber of our team. I'm surrounded by work-hard, play-hard, hustle-obsessed, results-oriented people that inspire me to constantly become more efficient, learn, and achieve.

Cons

Very long hours and less opportunity for work-life balance. But at the same time, who cares if you're putting in long hours and have a mind-blowing amount of responsibility if you believe in your company's innovation, absolutely love what you do, and love who you're doing it with more!? Uber is not a job; it is a lifestyle, and it should be appreciated as such. The lightning pace, frequency and degree of constructive change, and sheer amount of talent in this workplace make it like no company on earth. The historical opportunity to be here now is what keeps me striving.
