Process
The recruiter contacted me through LinkedIn.
I responded and had the initial phone conversation with the recruiter.
This has to be one of the worst initial phone conversations I've ever had in the Bay Area.
The recruiter was not only late, but she seemed very disinterested (remember, it was she who contacted me) and generally lacked decent communication skills.
I guess nepotism is the only reason such a lousy recruiter got hired at Uber.
I don't see a good future for Uber.

Uber Work Experiences
- 5.0"Big company" revenue and growth, "small company" feel (culture, ownership, attitude)Software Engineer • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesOctober 28, 2014Pros: Challenging problems to solve, smartest coworkers in the business, beautiful office space. Lots to keep an engineer busy, as evident by the growing number of 4+ year employees (only a 5-year-old company!).Cons: Lots of work, passionate coworkers, and tireless management lead to work-life balance difficulties. Luckily, most days, being in the office with coworkers is more stress-relieving than holing up in a coffee shop to work by yourself.
