How does Seattle SWE onboarding/orientation look like ? Do you get a laptop shipped prior to your joining date ? Do you have to visit the office for pickup ? Can I DM for details ? New TC: 450K (4 year average) Level: 5
Had a few people onboard all of them got their laptop in the mail the week before. Can’t show up to the office first day for a few reasons so expect to start remote. If for whatever reason your laptop doesn’t show on time you are able to do engucation with your personal comp
What kind of equipments other laptop we can buy and expense it?
For me the laptop was shipped just three days before the start date. Be prepared for the first day of on-boarding from your personal laptop.
I got mine on Monday afternoon. Just be patient. Btw MacBook Pro is brand new 2021 m1 max with 64gb ram. F**k frugality!
I would be joining Uber on 7th Feb, but I have not received laptop & no word on first day orientation. By when I should be expecting these?
Email your recruiter. You should have heard by now
I have asked him, waiting for his reply. Just wanted to check what is usual timeline at Uber to receive details on first day orientation.

Your recruiter will have the best info since things may have changed during covid. In terms of onboarding, you will likely have engucation in first week which is a very general Uber bootcamp and then team specific onboarding with your team starting the following week.
thanks. Makes sense to ask the recruiter instead
Is team specific onboarding something informal (i.e. just sit with your team) or is it structured?
