Pros

The work hours are typical 9-5, dog friendly office, fully stocked kitchens, casual work environment, GREAT employees.

Cons

The application, interview and overall process is a little long. I applied and finally interviewed a few weeks late and started working two weeks after that. It takes about 1 month from start to finish.

Pros

Rapidly growing and well funded. Depending on the team you're on, you have the opportunity to make an impact and grow. The $200/month in ride credits is a great perk

Cons

Horrible office politics and inexperienced leadership plagues the company. Too many managers land grabbing and building empires. Senior leadership consists of inexperienced people, many of which haven't worked anywhere before Lyft. Very cheap company in terms of compensation and raises The CEO and President are nice guys but they're not the leaders you want to march into battle for. They're more concerned about being "woke" than building the transportation solution of the future

Pros

Huge experience, training, and start-up culture environment

Cons

Goals are high, and the company is very competitive. Must have skills across the board to be successful. Strategy, Analytics, Time Management, Client Relations.
