Pros

The best thing about working here is the fact that you get to solve problems at a very large scale. Every thing you do here is used by millions of people, and pushed to performance limits. Uber has a good onboarding process, including a week of training and weekly sessions that anyone can attend. You get thrown into the fire quickly, and will be asked to solve problems right from the start. This can be stressful at first.

Cons

You'll probably get asked to do things you have no idea how to do, and will be expected to figure it out on your own. You need to be comfortable with putting yourself out there to find answers. You'll probably have a few late nights while getting up to speed.

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
