I have been working at Uber full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
Great company to work for. As a female, I have found the culture to be fantastic. It is very team oriented and people genuinely want to help you succeed. There is a ton of room for professional growth across the org and in general the company is still open to innovative solutions.
Cons
Still a young company with many foundational components that still need to be implemented

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Uber full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
I have truly loved my experience thus far working at Uber. I was hesitant to join because of the news, so through my interview process I was very honest, asked lots of questions, and had a 2 hour conversation with my hiring manager before accepting my offer. Since joining, I've been overwhelmed, in a good way, by the collaboration, the valuing of my opinions, and the excitement of the work I get to do each day.
Cons
The best analogy here is like a 14 year old that looks like a 20 year old... Uber is still a young company and I think I expected more things to be in place that are just not yet. Now that I am here and doing the work, I see it differently, but I think that we're still young, we're growing fast, and we need to provide the feedback while also being patient to thoughtfully get the right systems and procedures in place.

Pros
Truly amazing team. The team is of very high caliber with very strong researchers that are truly on the cutting edge of deep learning research and are staying on top and work hard.
Super interesting work and amazing data.
Strong results delivered over and over again, sometimes against strong headwinds against the wider org.
Team is collaborative and friendly
The org as a whole is moving forward in general in the right direction
There are many good teams in the org with necessary contributions such as hardware, laser, vehicle platform etc and it really takes a larger org to build a self-driving carCons
* Repeated strong success of deep learning models coming out of this group comes with a territory and politics in the org which is really universal across humans/workplaces especially in a competitive area like self-driving.
* It is very important to be unaffected/able to stay out of wider politics and continue cranking out work/results if you are at Uber ATG. This can be challenging but overall the results coming out of ATG Toronto, the problem and data are amazing and the org is moving in the right direction.
* Not all humans in the wider org are unbiased/honest with themselves. Some of them are, more should strive to be. This is a fact of life in most organizations unfortunately.
* The whole team is under-leveled relative to it's contributions but this will hopefully be fixed in the near term as the results of team's work show over and over again. Fact is the team is super strong and the opportunity is enormous.Advice to Management
Raquel is doing a truly amazing job and Uber is really lucky to have her onboard.. In my opinion she is the single most valuable MVP at ATG and anyone should consider themselves super lucky having an opportunity to work with her. This is an obviously very strong personal opinion and could be biased but it's honest.

Pros
I love Uber Eats because I get to make my own schedule and I like that we get paid every week.
Cons
The Uber app doesn't tell where the person lives until after we click start trip. Another thing that is a downfall is customers do not tip.
Advice to Management
Tell us where the person lives before we click start trip and make a way so customers can tip. Thank you.
