Pros

Great Brand name. Exposure to some great problems in the industry.

Cons

There is very little to learn. The company is full of new college grads who hardly know how to write maintainable code. The company has a very little sense of direction and believes in throwing money at every problem. The CEO believes that employee should at least put in 80 hrs/week. No work like balance.

Uber Response
