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

Software engineer

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.

New-grad Software Engineer, loving the impact & responsibility

Pros

As a new grad, I am given the opportunity to learn a ton and work on cool things that impact user's and other employees throughout the company. I feel like my work does have an impact on the company as a whole. I never have felt like I have been treated like a "junior" engineer. The culture at Uber is pretty awesome. It's very social, we have kegs in the office, and there are quite a few social events, so it's pretty fun.

Cons

Since you work on things that matter, when you break something, you have to fix it. Not really a big problem, as I believe engineers should be responsible for fixing things the break, but I've had to kill a few Saturdays fixing a mistake I made on Friday.

Pros

Working at Uber is really fulfilling. We work on hard and interesting problems, the company is extremely flat so everyone has a voice and can bring ideas to execute on. Every single employee is smart and extremely passionate about the business, which makes the work environment amazingly motivating and energizing. It offers amazing career opportunity for everyone. Free Uber and other perks are also nice obviously.

Cons

This is the fastest growing company, ever. So obviously being in that hyper growth phase, you need to work a lot of hours, but I've seen a worst.
