- kind working team… genuine and authentic - incredibly smart and thoughtful people at all levels, on most teams - interesting opportunity space with tangible problems to solve and high potential for innovation - thoughtful focus on customers/users on most teams, with more and more company investment in how to do this effectively - recent investments in strategically aligning the organization and creating clarity in operations to support initiatives are beginning to help
Executives and senior leaders are terrible at investing in, growing and empowering the leaders under them, rather than holding them accountable and valuing their expertise and insights, they tend to bottleneck, micromanage and ignore the smart and thoughtful people they have hired. This has a three fold effect of eroding confidence in leadership overall, alienating working teams, and causing a culture of distrust, speculation and poor communication. Because everyone is “so nice”, and leadership is taking the tactic of micromanaging, a lot of things that could be worked through are left unsaid, and candor is absent at all levels. If Lyft can rightsize the above, by working with their leaders rather than around them; and investing in more leaders that are held accountable to contribute, drive, communicate and deliver …it will absolutely find itself on the right path.
I got an offer from Lyft recently. I currently live in Seattle but I work full time remote. I’m planning on accepting the Lyft offer, but I’m wondering if there’s room to negotiate for more. I have a Meta onsite scheduled next week but I’m planning to cancel it. Meta would pay more, but based off m...Read more

Are you going to buy lyft stocks as soon as it becomes available? If not, comment why.
Purely from a monetary perspective feels like a easy decision to choose Lyft. But just concerned about the stability at Lyft. Folks at Lyft , do you anticipate layoffs or do you guys feel layoffs are behind?
I just accepted an offer at Lyft recently, did I screw myself over?? Offer TC & role was great, but with the ongoing issues with regulations and pulling out of CA, I’m getting nervous whether I made the right choice. TC: $420 #offer #lyft

I am reconsidering a Lyft offer that I recently accepted after looking at the financials. I had a bunch of other non tier 1 offers that I declined to accept Lyft and am consider information reaching out again. Do you think I am doing the right thing ?

Thoughts? Anyone who lives there have a perspective on what that means for you personally? Poll in terms of outlook for Lyft and Uber. Update: It looks like CA is giving Uber and Lyft the waiver they requested
The recruiter updated me today saying my interview feedback is positive from the HC and wanted to extend me an offer. But he also said they are re-evaluating all their open roles and will only be able to update me more about the team match early next week. Anyone in a similar position? Lyft folks, a...Read more
I have 14+ yrs of work ex as a manager of ICs and a masters degree. I have an interview coming up with Lyft for a people manager position and the interviewer is much less experienced than me! They are ICs with barely 5 yrs of experience after BS! Feels wrong and demeaning somehow. Should I tell the...Read more
Lyft is died whatever they do. They will just lose money until broken. No price competition any more for Uber. So what will happen? It is kinda of perfect monopoly for Uber. I don’t think anti-trust will apply to it while Uber will be the only player in its business. I guess they can keep raise the ...Read more

If this "1 year grant" thing catches on, it'll lower salaries across the board in tech. These companies are trying to spin this positively, but it is nothing more than a play to reduce wages and save costs. Lyft even has internal documents that measure the cost savings of this new scheme and support...Read more

Target RSU per year is 33% lower. No merit increase for base pay this year. If and only if Lyft stops tanking now, most people will passively look for a new job now.
