Is it a bad time to ping recruiter to re-interview at Uber? Considering layoffs and stock dynamics. Is it too soon if I interviewed in November?

Google CFO confirms 'large-scale' layoffs (Apr 17)
Do you consider yourself as a risk averse or risk seeking person?
Come to Twilio instead
not a bad time. they just lifted hiring freeze. go for it.
Wait for it when their stock tanks further, they put the hiring freeze, and then layoff a bunch of engineers again
Also - did I seriously limit my chances the last time I interviewed at Uber by excluding SF location, only willing to commute to Palo Alto? I noticed I interviewed for teams which mostly use Java, while I have zero experience there.
thought they were all golang.
Not at the teams I interviewed with the last time. One of them was doing Cassandra, the other was also mostly Java.
Folks, let me tell you. No one can diminish the long term potential of Uber. It has lot of growth potential.
Not a bad time. Come on in. In fact the stock is at a low so expect that to be beneficial to you. Only issue is hiring will be less in California offices. They will hire more in other offices in US and out of US.
Drinking too much kool-aid mate!
IMO their reorganize/layoff after shock has not settled. I was told there was no more headcount next day after interview, nothing to do with my performance. I trust it's safe and good if I manage to get an offer but seems chaotic at the moment.
Why’d you wanna work there?
I failed F and G interviews, have no idea how to get interviewed at N (and I hear they need Java or JVM languages). So, what next?
Airbnb? Amazon? LinkedIn? Lyft? Microsoft? Quora? Robinhood? Square? Stripe?
