A great company changing the world with passionate people
A great company changing the world with passionate people
- Everyone is passionate about the company and its mission.
- The company is still young enough that you get to build infrastructure that will be used by the company for years.
- There are tons of teams and products to work on. Once you're in, you really see that there is so much going on behind the app!
People work a lot. Depending on where you are, the experience changes. For instance, in SF, people are at the office for 10-12 hours but mix in play with work. However, in Seattle, people work fewer hours but are all work all the time.
Companies are really focused on saving money and cutting costs. This causes perks and benefits to be subpar compared to Facebook or Google, but still really good!
The company is still young, so infrastructure and developer tools are pretty bad.
Make sure to keep rewarding the employees for their work. The area that Uber is in is really controversial and competitive, and the employees can feel that and get pretty worn out. Continue to listen to the engineers' concerns, especially about dev tools, so that we can be more effective in writing and pushing code.

It was smooth, fast, and well-communicated. I had two final coding interviews with easy-to-medium question difficulty. The interviewers were accommodating and looked for how I approached the problem rather than completion or correctness.
