Pros

Its a company that wants to do the right thing. You work on a product that is important to so many people in a very real way. It has a great mission that can change the world.

Cons

Some of the old uber is returning unchecked. In particular the bad managers are now rising up after hiding and there are stories of intimidation and fear to control people. Today I heard a manager telling very new and junior staff while talking about money and stock at their work area, that uber only knows about them what he tells them, so if they want a pay rise, stock anything they should look after him (in a very not so joking way). Please don't let the old uber return, the new uber is a much nicer place to work.

Pros

At this point, there is very little that is positive about working here apart from the health insurance, Lyra mental health coverage (which is beyond essential), and a 401k. But, those can be available at most jobs.

Cons

Poor pay, horribly managed environment, mistreatment by drivers, blatant sexism and favoritism, unqualified people getting promotions, and emotional exhaustion & burnout. Also, HR rarely pays attention to reports of unethical & illegal activity.

Free lunch daily with a kitchen full of snacks and drinks. Comfortable work station with office chairs. Given a monthly credit for Uber rides and delivery. Schedule is 4 days on 3 days off. Closed on Sundays and only have to work one Sat a month. Open to promotions after 6 months Young staff and relaxed office atmosphere. Promote from within; all management and leads are fully capable Health Insurance and gym membership discounts

Cons

Cannot be an Uber Driver while on payroll. Deal with difficult customer service issues Become familiar with a lot of different programs Mis-information on the web and old information is a challenge to correct
