- 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'm a E5 at FB and got a T5 offer at Lyft. I'm wondering how is the career growth / promotion trajectory at Lyft? I think I can reasonably reach E6 at Facebook within 2 years but I'm wondering if that's also feasible at Lyft. Current TC: 380 Lyft TC: 470
Company is going downhill for a few years now. This used to be a top tier TC and reputable company. Now, I worry that spending longer here looks bad. Will spending 4+ years here look bad? TC: 300k

Facebook base + bonus = Lyft base Facebook stock = 0.7 * Lyft stock Since fb is public, so comp wise it's equal. I have 2 years of industry experience. In terms of learning and career development, which one is better ?
any other high profile tech companies laying off but not getting as much media attention like Lyft, Airbnb or Uber? I’ve seen Segment, ClassPass, ZipRecruiter and Sonder. #career #uber #lyft #airbnb #tech
Which is better for career growth and compensation, specifically in early career? Also how fast does Lyft promote and how are refreshers? (I know fb promotes to e5 fast but what about Lyft). People voting, can you comment why? Also FB will be in NYC most likely.
Google to me is like Microsoft right now. * Perks suck because too many employees. * Food sucks * TC numbers I’ve seen so far are abysmal * Takes forever to progress through career I’m wondering how it’s still considered a top company. Companies like Airbnb, Lyft, Pinterest >;>;>; Google IM
