Pros

Really smart, great people; one of the best leadership team; challenging problems to tackle; huge market opportunities. For an individual, there are still opportunities to make a big impact.

Cons

If you're looking for a 9-5 job where you can clock in and clock out, Uber is not that place. There's some growing pains but it's expected for a company going through hyper growth.

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
