Uber is doing the most incredible engineering. Everything has to change constantly to handle our growing scale, and to do it the company has assembled the biggest cross section of talent in the Bay Area. No place has more opportunities to learn from so many engineers and contributed to so many projects.
Cons
May have to work long hours sometimes and fight fires when oncall, but the company has a high engineering bar for quality and testing that is constantly reducing the need for this.

Keep up the hard work, thanks for jumping in when duty calls!
I love being able to work around truly passionate people who are ready to change the world. The culture is great, free snacks and food is big plus. I had the opportunity to take ownership of projects within my first month
Cons
The hours are much longer than any other job I've worked in, but this is expected to change as we continue hiring more help
