Uber software engineer: bad experience
Uber software engineer: bad experience
Huge technology stack. Some projects are really interesting. With patience, hard work, and motivation, you can learn a lot of stuff.
Projects are suffering a lack of agility due to complexity. There's always a missing authorization or approbation to go forward.
When you need help or information, it can be really challenging to find the right person to talk with. There's an endless chain of messages on Slack with people and teams all around the world. You might wait a few days, if you're lucky, for a poor answer.
Poor management: Some managers may ask you to prepare a specification on Monday, then ask you to stop on Wednesday (because "we will not do it"), and finally ask on Friday if the specs are ready. Enjoy!
