Contractors abound - full time positions are challenging

Pros

Great environment, good salaries/hourly rates, wonderful perks, very good and open-minded employees, challenging and innovative work always.

Cons

Premature startup with refreshingly little change control and process, but this lends to some disorganization and disconnect between departments. Somewhat of a popularity contest advancing in the company. Very long hours frequently, and co-workers look down on others that don't put in extra time.

Thanks for writing this review! In my experience, working on challenging and innovative projects that have a major impact on the company is my favorite part of working @ Uber. The cons you mention are definitely a sign of our growth and are areas that we're working hard on. We're focused on keeping Uber lean, efficient, and without the 'process overkill' you mention, while scaling the company in the best way possible. Thanks again for the review!

Business Outlook

Pros

The company was still at an early stage, so there was a lot of room for me to figure out what I wanted to do within the company and took initiative to be in charge of the role I wanted.

Cons

Managers had a full plate so you had to figure a lot of stuff out on your own. Not necessarily very organized yet by the time I left the company. Did not compensate contractors well even though we contributed a lot to the company.
