The best engineering talent in the world
Software Engineer II • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
December 10, 2016
Pros: - Awesome & supportive team.
- Surrounded by smart, driven people.
- Perks are amazing: Uber credits, free lunches, breakfasts, and dinners.
- Not as much politics as you would expect for a tier 1 engineering company.
- Still feels like a startup, and everyone hustles appropriately.
Cons: Some people expect Uber to be at the same organizational level as a Facebook or a Google, but we are still so young. This leads some people to complain about minor issues, like the quality of food or a lack of process.
Some people are here just waiting for an IPO and not because they are passionate about Uber.
