Good riddance. It’s going to take a while to clean up her mess.
Lyft. Uber is evil.
You aren't serious right? 😅
Remember when Uber resold recalled cars and people died? I do
Which one has a bigger upside potential?
At current valuations? Definitely Uber.
That of course assumes Uber is undervalued and mostly Uber employees believe that.
Who will get acquired? Lyft or Uber?
Lyft due to price
Anytime Uber, I have couple of PM friends who joined Lyft after Facebook, but they had really bad experience and eventually moved back to Facebook and some at Uber. Lyft is just a hype as it looks good from outside, but the folks who works there doesn’t have pleasant experience nor they have future against having a big established giant like Uber, who is already captured everything.
Why were their experiences negative? Was it the work or culture, or just the future prospects?
I have friends who like it at Lyft. Meanwhile at Uber they make excuses for why they’re still there (waiting to take a long sabbatical or cash out usually)
I’m a PM and I love my job. I love coming to work, I love competing and growing. I love beating the big bad wolf that has more money and resources. Being the smaller player requires a different strategy than being number one and we’re using it to our advantage. Ask around which Uber PMs moved to Lyft and which Lyft PMs moves to Uber to see where the value is from people with Better perspectives. Same with strong engineers and with senior economists. We are taking only the best of Uber and beating them one day at a time.

I am starting to think Chinese interviewers currently fail non-Chinese candidates on purpose.
As a PM there’s only one logical choice and you only need to ask yourself one question “do I want to lead and invent the future or to follow and copy those that are?” On top of that, Tali Rapaport is a tire fire.
What’s wrong with Tali? Please provide more details.
