Pros

After having worked at several Dutch companies over past several years and exploring the market by attending professional gatherings and applying for different jobs in the field, I think that Uber is one of the best tech employers in the Netherlands, because of the challenges at work, career opportunities and compensation (salary and benefits). Uber employs smart and knowledgeable engineers who like to share their experience and are always there to help you. Plus points: - Working on top projects at the highest-valued startup in history. - Great colleagues and managers around. - Career opportunities with clear well-documented expectations. - A ton of internal education programs. - Salary significantly higher than market average. Yearly bonuses and stock options. Many perks like Uber credit, gym and phone subscriptions and so on. - Amazing canteen with free breakfasts and lunches.

Cons

- As the company is very big, it's not always easy to produce a lot of visible impact. - Some processes are slow.

Pros

Contradict to common belief, my team is really warm and respectful. Compensation is great. Projects are impactful. Work life balance is respected.

Cons

Bit far to commute from South Bay, but Uber Credits Helps a bit. Food is nasty, free food should have dignity as well.

Pros

Good pay & perks. Lots of things to learn. Kind and smart engineers surround you.

Cons

Managers tend to have too many people to be effective. Some are completely incompetent. Those with smaller teams tend to do better. Work life balance is difficult on some teams. Has started becoming very political.
