Software Engineer • Former Employee
Amsterdam, Netherlands
November 2, 2019
Pros: Good benefits, quite good work-life balance, although engineering teams have on-call duty which can be very stressful. Good growth opportunities, a lot of autonomy and freedom to choose what you want to work on.
Smart colleagues, nice office with great lunch (Amsterdam).
Cons: On-call duty in engineering teams.
High turnover in management roles.
Uber doesn't seem to be doing well as a public company, so there's a lot of uncertainty.
It's a very fast-moving company. The engineering teams are more on the senior side, so it's a tough place for new grads.
A lot of autonomy and independence is expected from engineers pretty much from day one.
