Pros

Fast paced, tons of opportunities to contribute, great positive atmosphere, very sharp coworkers. Lots of very interesting and far reaching problems being worked on. Attracts passionate people who are the best at what they do.

Cons

You have to look out for yourself to make sure you have the support you need to do your job right. Self-starters do best. Very little hand holding. Fewer perks than other tech companies. Very demanding, of course.

Pros

I have the experience of working for 3 of the top software companies in the Bay area and have recently started working for Uber. I joined Uber among a handful of different other offers. I was a little doubtful before starting but am more than happy about my decision after spending sometime there. It is a great place to work with lots of opportunities to grow. It still has its startup culture focusing on rapid development and growth and avoiding common bureaucracy at larger companies. Everyone is friendly and supportive and you immediately feel as part of the family.

Cons

While its catered food quality is better than many of the other tech companies in Bay area, it can still be improved. considering the fact that the company grew from a few employee to hundreds of them in very short time, I am sure the problem will be taken soon. The variation and types of food catered is not that many, although the quality of the used ingredients is good.

Pros

1) Great engineering culture. People are very nice here, and team members are very supportive. People who are working here are really excited and passionate about the product! I learnt a ton, and had fun everyday. 2) Great perks. Such as catered lunch, gym membership reimbursement, etc.

Cons

Sometimes long hours. Cannot think any other cons.
