I am doing the best work of my life at Uber.

Business Outlook

Pros

Probably the best thing about working at Uber is the quality of my co-workers. Easily the best management team I have ever had the pleasure of working for. Another pro for me is due to the pace & growth of our company I am learning so much more than if I worked at a company that has plateaued. Daily challenges present themselves that are highly rewarding when you tackle them.

Cons

You will work hard here, but you won't be alone at least.
