Pros

Great pay with smart teammates if you're in the right organization. There is still a hint of the old engineering culture but many have since left.

Cons

Lots of dishonest middle management and empire building. Lots of engineers who are overpaid to know nothing but copy-paste code. Uber is a political organization, not an engineering one. You do not work here to learn or advance your career. You come here to do pretend to do work.
