      Pros

      -The pay and quarterly bonuses. -your acting skills improve over time -your problem solving skills improve

      Cons

      -you get PTO but can't use it because they keep on loosing employees -cant trust management to keep confidential information to themselves -drivers can talk to you anyway they please and get away with it (yes anything) security is there but doesn't hear much due to his headphones -if you are friends with management you get priority treatment -face muscles hurt after work because no smile equals low rating (yes. Drivers get to rate you) and that means eventual termination. -can only wear Uber shirts. -dont even get me started on HR..

      Pros

      they revamped their salary and equity structure once employees started leaving amidst all of the self-inflicted turmoil in 2017. so some employees received hefty adjustments upward to align with the bottom of the market equivalent bands. early employees were able to keep what became a generous (generous because of non-retro changes that were made) Uber credit benefit to be used for rides & meals. you get to work with some very smart, capable, driven-by-ambition young people who foresee themselves achieving great things elsewhere.

      Cons

      Zero work /life balance. Internal politics are rife with domain protection and territory management in order to achieve career growth. Total focus on individual achievement and some toxic team dynamics depending on which org you work in. Fringe benefits (meals, Uber credits, (un)limited vacation, facilities, training opportunities) are 2nd class. Institutional sexism and ageism, with less and less transparency as issues are bubbled up to the surface. This has created a cover-up culture that spends heavily on spin and PR. Huge technical debt across several organizations.
