Rejected FB and other offers for Uber couple months back. Now I am crying inside seeing how stock perform. Head down and work harder but can't help but feeling I am stupid! TC: down to 400K 8 years exp #uber
Don't join a company with a failing business model? Lul
Like Facebook?
You mean the number 2 ad market place on the internet is a failing business model? Lol
What % are you down?
about 20%, in a very short times.
20% tc or just stock ?
What were your expectations ? X % growth over Y year??
not exactly but losing 20% in couple months is not my expectation.
Did you think stocks only go up? Stocks are inherently risky. If you think you have it bad, just before LinkedIn was bought by Microsoft our stock crashed over 50%. You'll survive. We did.
You deserve it for your stupidity
Agree with others. Uber has been a sinking ship for a while
Were they profitable ever ?
No they weren’t but there was a lot of hope that they will do good. There’s no hope either anymore.
Crying: "Down to 400k"... What a world!
Why wouldn't they cry if they go down from 480 to 400? Do you expect them to throw a party?
No, why does it have to be extreme?!
I almost rejected Google and Fb offer to join Uber 4 months ago. I'm thankful to have people around me who stopped me from doing that. On a positive note, I would not be too worried about Uber stock. I've put some of my own money (of course not as much as you) into it. Hold on to the stock, you'll come out a winner in the end.
Good advice. I bought some Uber stock too recently. Give it some time and the stock will do well.
Uber stock has been down for last 5 years. Why are you surprised now?
Dang you're gonna have to stop buying the fancy ramen
You wouldn't loose much if you leave now. Staying might be more costly
