Pros

Very friendly coworkers and a trusting company culture with lots of opportunities to take advantage of.

The stars have aligned: I like my manager and his style, I like the team I'm on, and I like the work that we're doing within the Uber Advanced Technology Group.

My manager is very flexible and emphasizes the balance of life and work.

Cons

Lots of freedom and a relaxed pace often means lots of time for an insecure recent college grad to think they're underperforming.

Advice to Management

Appoint a mentor for people with less than 5 years of experience. This mentor helps new hires get up to speed with the workflow quickly. This is in addition to their direct supervising manager, who may or may not also be the mentor, as mine is.
