Uber

Uber is growing really, really, really fast. Seriously, you'll see the hockey stick growth everywhere: number of riders/drivers, number of new employees, number of [our] money we make, etc.

This is also a really fun and cool place for Software Engineers.

Compared to big companies, Uber is still very small. Each team is extremely small. There are so many problems we want to solve. My peers are extremely talented, no matter how many years of experience you have. Uber engineers focus on our mission and execute it in a very efficient manner.

Compared to other startups, Uber is still moving extremely fast. Once you join, you'll see what kind of challenges we have. This is not just a feature. You'll have an impact!

Also, you have a very friendly culture. At the end of the day, I am solving a very interesting problem for millions of riders, drivers, or even merchants. Everyone helps each other and learns from each other. By the way, saying is easier than doing. I've seen it in other companies.

We also have very interesting tech talks. Again, you'll feel the scale of the impact you can make as an Uber engineer.

Lunch catering could be better.

Keep the unique culture. Keep the hiring bar high.
