Pros

Hiring process: very fast. I got an offer in the same week as my interview and from there it was just a matter of when I wanted to join.

Revamped culture: I don't see any signs of what I used to hear in the media about the bad culture. I see the whole company pushing the new norms and focusing on diversity and inclusion.

The mission: Uber has a great potential to literally move the world.

Talent in the company: I'm yet to see someone who is not well qualified for their role, and I have learned so much from my teammates already.

Transparency: The management is always eager to hear what employees have to say and respond to all the hard questions that they ask. This definitely was not the case in my previous company when it came to compensations and financials of the company.

Compensation: Very competitive, and I love the package structure they have with cash and stock bonuses.

Cons
  • Uber is doing so much, and joining from a startup company was a bit overwhelming.

  • Hearing and seeing people leave the company (which is very normal for companies at this size and age) was a little hard for a new hire such as me.
