Pluspunten
Best thing about working at Uber is the autonomy. You're given a ton of responsibility to build awesome products and if you're willing to roll up your sleeves and get right into the weeds of a problem - you'll do well here. The company is growing at such an incredible pace that there's a new challenge each and every day.You'll never be bored and there's always something fun to work on. The benefits are also top notch - riding in Black Cars, catered lunches, and free healthcare is pretty awesome.
Minpunten
The worst thing about Uber is comp. We get a good amount of equity which will 100% be worth it in the end, but if you're coming from Finance or Consulting expect a 20-30% cash pay cut. The hours used to be maddening but we've done a much better job at hiring recently. The work life balance has gotten a lot better but it's still really hard to disconnect. Expect to always be on and get pulled away during major holidays, events, promos, etc. We're always sprinting.
