Pros

Uber offers tons of chances to make great things as a data scientist. Non-US regions are full of complex challenges and lot of resources to solve them As a data scientist you would love their data-driven culture and in-house tools that provide you advantages over other companies.

Cons

Data Science might be underestimated outside headquarters and sometimes you could be doing not-related work. Although is possible to move across DS team within the org, people in HQ could be skeptical about someone outside doing data science.

Pros

I've had a very positive experience working here. Since my first day, I've been challenged to step outside my comfort zone and do my best, but I've also always felt heard and supported. I've been trusted to make decisions, take ownership of my work, and contribute in meaningful ways, which made me feel like a valued part of the team from the beginning. The pace is definitely fast, but that's something I really enjoyed. It pushed me to learn something new almost every day and kept the work interesting and rewarding. The people are another reason I've enjoyed working here. I've had the opportunity to work with incredibly talented, collaborative teammates who genuinely support each other. When everyone is willing to help and bring their best, it's amazing how much the team can accomplish together.

Cons

The fast pace isn't for everyone, but if you enjoy solving challenging problems, learning continuously, and taking ownership, you'll likely thrive here.

Pros

I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month

Cons

The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
