Process

  1. HR phone screen: Breezed through this initial HR round.

  2. Team member phone screen: Breezed through this one as well. They called for an onsite 1:1 with the team.

  3. Onsite 1:1: This was supposed to be 30 minutes with multiple team members. First thing when I entered their office was a sense of informality. They had a rundown building rented in the middle of SF city, which these guys call an office. A couple of bikes and scooters were scattered here and there. I was supposed to be greeted at the gate by an HR person, who was nowhere to be found. I had to check in myself with the help of the reception guy. The 1:1 with the panel was again a disappointment. Most of the interviewers came in late to the meeting and were at home or a hotel, conducting the interview via video call. I don't understand the point of calling a person over to your location, then having interviewers not show up for the meeting on time and, when they do, looking like they just woke up, shabbily dressed, and asking stupid, lame questions that are not even related to the role. Totally unprofessional and a lame engineering group; no wonder they can't compete with giants like Uber, however hard they try. Everyone in their team considers themselves to be a master of their field, which they are not, and they have a huge misunderstanding about themselves. On the contrary, I was there for a whole day, which I completely wasted, and nobody even asked me for a drink or food.

  4. HR call: After numerous follow-ups post the interview, they let me know that they don't find me a good fit. My two cents to her was that when you don't treat other people and their time with respect, you don't deserve good, hard-working people on your team.

My advice to any new applicants: Please don't apply to Lyft and waste your time and energy with these fools. They are not going anywhere and can't take you anywhere. Stay away from Lyft and go for Uber, who respect their employees. Lyft's days are numbered due to such good-for-nothing engineers.
