      Great opportunities to grow Exciting technologies to work with as an engineer Company moves very fast in every way you can think of Talented coworkers Great perks: Uber credits, food, and gym/cell phone reimbursement, yoga/meditation rooms

      Cons

      Lunch and dinner food isn't the best Some teams seem to be very fast paced, but work life balance is getting better

      Pros

      - Fast paced culture - Very interesting engineering challenges (100x cluster size increase in 2 years !) - Freedom to work on interesting projects - Scale of data we deal with are really huge (on the same league as goog/fb/amzn) - Flexible hours (you are measured by output, not effort) - Hockey stick growth company (even at $70B) - Chance to be part of a really world changing company - Chance to impact the lives and livelihoods of real people - Very nice people (yes , really) Just before I joined earlier this year, I was very skeptical about Uber given all the negative things I had read in the press. After I joined, I was very pleasantly surprised to find out that none of that is true. Now I am sure there were isolated bad incidents in the past which should have been handled differently. But the vast majority of the people here are just nice people !

      Cons

      - A tiny bit disorganized; which is understandable given the speed at which we are growing.

      Great review, thank you! Among the pros you call out, I especially love how you mention the interesting engineering challenges, freedom to work on different projects, and chance to impact the lives of real people. We often hear these in reviews and we believe they make Uber a really unique & exciting place to work. Thanks again for taking the time, and keep up the great work on the engineering team.
