Pros

Company is transparent, execs are easy to talk to and accessible, innovation and new ideas are welcome.

Cons

Fast moving companies require everyone to work hard. You will be expected to participate so if you're looking for less involved role, this may not be for you.

Great So Far

Pros

Lyft has cultivated a company culture that seems to fit with its brand promise - friendly, inclusive, and quirky enough to remind you there's a soul behind the slick operations.

Cons

The rapid growth will test Lyft's ability to feel like a family. That rapid growth also stretches HR capacity, so recruiting can be a slow process.

Pros

It is a great atmosphere and a fantastic attitude. Everything here has the feel of a company that takes care of its people and wants people to enjoy it. The amenities are real and vibe is great. It is a company that preaches what it means and means what it preaches.

Cons

I have had a hard time adjusting to meeting people and breaking into the company socially. Since some of the teams are so silo'ed vertically it seems that its hard to interact with people around the company. Its also growing so fast that I feel like people might be slipping through the cracks.
