Pros

-You get to create processes, how things are gonna work from now on -The people, we all make the best work environment - Great organizational culture - specially since we're improving it; there's no hierarchy levels cause your voice is always heard no matter what level you're speaking to or are, flexible working hours (depending on the role of course) and I actually feel it's a company that cares for its employees -There's a lot of career opportunities - specially since we keep growing globally -Promotions are according to your performance and skills, not only due to seniority at the company

Cons

-Poor balance between personal and professional life. It has been quite stressing but leaders are actually working on fixing this -Some managers are young so we still need to improve trainings for them -I started as EXT and they changed some tenure rules which caused pressure and conflict among my team - which hasn't been solved as we've expected

Pros

- I had the opportunity to be one of the first employees in Uber in LATAM. It's been amazing to see how fast it has grown and all the potential we still have. Back in the days (July 2014) we were operating with Rides in 7 cities in the region, and we are now in more than 130. We now have UberEats too, expanding rapidly. - I haven't had the chance to get bored in almost 4 years. New projects and challenges coming up every day. - I've also had the opportunity to grow, start hiring and build a team - It is very goal and objectives driven. You are set up with tasks and goals, and you are free to do whatever you think is best - but making sure to deliver! - They trust you and will help you along the way - I'ts been truly inspiring to see how Uber has changed from inside out, changing its mission, priorities, etc, but always listening to employees and doing what's best for them - I'm confident we are heading to an even better place.. and still with plenty of challenges ahead

Cons

- The fast growth was also a bit painful. Constant changes, switch of priorities every time and we didn't really got to plan anything, just react and deliver. - Its very hard to be in a company so publicly known, where you see negative news almost every day... most of the times these are not entirely true. - As we grew so fast, we tried to grow our people very fast too. We got to a point where we had lots of young managers - that were first time managers.

2 years in Uber Latin America

Pros

I've been in Uber for 2 years and I still get excited every morning to go to work. Even though we've been through so many changes and challenges and we have learned from our mistakes, the leadership team is focused in creating the best experience for our customer, including employees.

Cons

Growth at Uber's pace is difficult to keep up with. There are still many changes we need to adjust internally to create a better work environment. For example compensation across all countries in Latin America. May managers are becoming managers for their first time in their lives. Even if this represents a great opportunity to grow, the company needs to invest more time/money in coaching. We need to create more leaders.
