Process
I had applied through a referral for the software engineer role at Uber ATG, Pittsburgh. The turnaround was pretty quick. A technical phone screen was scheduled for the following week.
On the day of the call, the interview, I waited for the call for 20 minutes after the scheduled time before e-mailing the HR. The interviewer had forgotten about the call!
Anyway, after that, the interview went smoothly. Later, I was contacted to say that they had moved me to the next technical screen.
On the day of that interview, to my surprise, I received a call from the HR just to say that the new grad positions had been filled up and there would be no more interviews. I found this to be very unprofessional. They shouldn't have moved me to the next round if this was the case, or they should have at least let me know the nature of the call before the interview.

Uber Work Experiences
- 4.0Great learning opportunity, but the organization suffocates individuals under its weightSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeAmsterdam, North Holland, NetherlandsMarch 11, 2018Pros: Great learning opportunity. Following best practices in both code and management. Free lunch. Co-workers are true professionals that care about the quality of their craftsmanship. Code is written well and generally of high quality.Cons: Overly bureaucratic, even if superficially pretending to be casual. Said to still possess the startup culture - utter BS. Promo process so heavy and bureaucratic that it's easier to quit and come back re-evaluated. Not a place for loners, introverts, and quiet people. So much insistence on constant communication, documentation, meetings, syncing, retrospectives, 1:1s, all-hands, RFC reviewing, to the point where it's hard to just sit in peace and do some actual coding.
- 5.0Great company, intenseSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesApril 24, 2023Pros: Great momentum in the direction of the business.Cons: English is clearly being offshored to other countries.
- 1.0Brand Name, No LearningSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesMarch 3, 2017Pros: Great brand name. Exposure to some great problems in the industry.Cons: There is very little to learn. The company is full of new college grads who hardly know how to write maintainable code. The company has a very little sense of direction and believes in throwing money at every problem. The CEO believes that employees should at least put in 80 hours per week. No work-life balance.
