Software Engineer Interview Experience - São Paulo, Brazil
January 1, 2024
Positive ExperienceNo Offer
Process
After the application, they contacted me via email and provided me with the test on CodeSignal.
After the test, another email was sent to schedule a meeting and explain details of the position with the HR personnel.
Questions
I suggest you enter CodeSignal and check how the platform works. For those who are used to IDEs and the ease of keyboard shortcuts, entering the test directly for the first time will disadvantage you, as everything is recorded and if you leave the screen, you lose points.

Pros: Working at Uber speaks for itself, as here you have the opportunity to work on projects with direct impact on millions of people worldwide.
The nature of the challenges is at a level I had never seen before, which makes you evolve and grow as a professional and as a person. For me, this is one of the biggest benefits of working here.
Not to mention that I have the opportunity to work with people of a very advanced technical level, from various parts of the world, from various cultures.
Salaries and benefits go far beyond the average.
Cons: The only negative point I've seen so far was the possibility of having on-call shifts, which can demand extra effort and time. However, the interval between on-call shifts tends to be long, not impacting the experience as a whole.
3.0
Good remuneration, quality of life not so much.

Pros: Good remuneration; good benefits.
Many tools.
Cons: Very toxic company. Little concern for reality. It creates an environment of high competitiveness and leaves certain types of devs out and isolated. It kind of sabotages people's careers until burnout.
Almost zero diversity. The majority of employees are the standard elitist white male.
