I got an offer from Uber India for ML based role. I have another offer from a US based startup (7+ years) whose core product is ML/AI based. Uber has a bigger name and will be offering a higher TC. Work wise both have some pros/cons. So I am mainly concerned about stability, will Uber be doing any layoffs in the coming months? I know its difficult to predict anything for the long term but I am concerned that they don't do layoff just a few months after hiring. Please suggest if you have any inputs. Thank you. Blind tax: Yoe: 3 yr Current tc: 30 lpa Startup: 35 lpa Uber: expecting 40+ lpa #uber #uberindia #machinelearningengineer #machinelearning #datascience #layoffs #tech #data #engineering #layoff
Why not ? Else you are concerned about metro being built eating up Uber 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the joke. But hopefully I get some useful input as well 🙂
Laying off few months after u join shouldn’t include u afaik. They mostly make it performance based. This is based on what I’ve read on Blind. Your exit opportunities would be good too I believe
What role is this in Uber? Data scientist or MLE? I want to apply to Uber but apparently MLE is all filled up. Any pointers will be helpful.
Op can you share your background? How did you get ml role? I am sde interested in ml.
My background is in ML. Masters from a decent college and some papers. My current work role is also MLE. So I might not be the best person to suggest transition from SDE to ML.
Ok, thanks. Can you tell what does does a day to day work/project for mle look like? Do you work on building models or analysing data and building solutions based on predefined models?
