Pros

Great environment with wonderful coworkers Management is flexible and considerate Company is invested in your career Benefit package is amazing

Cons

Being based in San Francisco, the Nashville office has to stream team meetings and often have video meetings with team members in other offices. It's not horrible, it can just feel distant.

Pros

Meaningful projects. Good science community environment. Good work life balance.

Cons

Company's primary focus is still on ride-sharing business so stock price does not go up.

Pros

Academic environment that has a lot of interesting science problems from mapping, optimization, plus all the usual user metrics. Rewarding and complex problems that often have a lo t of tradeoff.

Cons

For how good the ICs are, leadership is equally bad. Just riddled with poor decisions top/down. Also given the current state, Uber is just too strong of a competitor and you feel that pressure every day.
