      Not cool.

      Community support representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The pay is nice and working from home is great. Hands off management is cool too I suppose.

      Cons

      Constant change and the overseas workers are very bad at their jobs so your job is basically just cleaning up their mess. They are phasing out all the work from home workers in the US so they can take over, too. You never know when someone is going to disappear and nobody will tell you what's going on. No heads up whatsoever about your contract being extended. I've met with my manager twice in 6 months. No values.

      I'm sorry that you feel this way about your experience here. If you'd like to reach out and talk about specifics you think would improve the work of community support representatives I'd be happy to listen and pass the word along confidentially. -Andrew, alevy@uber.com

      Great for problem solving, not great for a career

      Team lead
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      **Smart People** Smart People solving complex problems

      Cons

      **Culture** The culture at Uber is not healthy. Its move fast and only about results at all cost. The impact on our customers or employees does not matter. There has been much in the news about **Career Growth** There is no career growth or logical career path. You are working to work and hoping that the equity would be worth something someday. There are re-orgs every 3 - 6 months which force you to learn new skill sets. **Management** First time managers are a huge problem with no training. Upper management does not care about the individual employees, all they care about is the business. **Compensation** Equity that has a 4 year vesting window and minimal cash. Do not expect to be liquid for a while

      Thanks for taking the time to write up this review and for the well-organized feedback. If you'd be willing, I'd like to set up some time with you to chat anonymously about specific actions we can take to address the areas you call out as cons. I'm confident we'll improve them as we scale and grow as a company, but if you have specific ideas, it'd be great to connect. Feel free to reach out and I can set up a time to talk: pierce@uber.com.

      Thanks for the review and your contributions in your time at Uber. I noticed you've moved on to a new opportunity but do know that I've passed your feedback on internally. In my time here over the last year, I've noticed a few things you mention, such as the long hours, have improved as we've scaled up to a 10k+ person company. While we still have many areas to improve, I'm confident with our new leadership and focus areas that the experience of working at Uber will continue to improve. Thanks again and best of luck in your new opportunity!
