      Good perks, horrible pay

      Community associate

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Constant change and quickly growing

      Cons

      Pay is horrible. For people who have families, student loans, mortgages etc, it is barely a living wage. For a position that requires intimate knowledge of the platform and the acumen to support drivers 9 hours a day, you would think that Lyft would pay them a reasonable wage.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Huge opportunity for impact all across the company -Great blend of product leadership expertise from Goog/FB and operational expertise from transportation behemoths. -The person sitting next to you really wants to be there and generally believes in the vision.

      Cons

      -Hyper growth has lead to kingdom building and posturing amongst head butting executives. -Your experience may vary by organization. The major levers of the business are allocated resources that some groups see pulled.

      UX Research

      User experience researcher

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The most diverse workplace I have ever been in and on average, people here have a very high EQ. The company has a vision I can get behind and I feel like my voice is heard and appreciated. UX research is taken extremely seriously here, unlike in some companies. And it's not just A/B testing; we do lots and lots of in-depth qualitative interviewing and are striving to get out into the field more and more, as well as running surveys and doing analytics on customer data.

      Cons

      Since the company is growing so fast, things are constantly in flux. But if you're entrepreneurial this won't bother you too much.
