Uber values

Go get it
Bring the mindset of a champion
Our ambition is what drives us to achieve our mission. How we define a champion mindset isn’t based on how we perform on our best days, it’s how we respond on the worst days. We hustle, embrace the grind, overcome adversity, and play to win for the people we serve. Because it matters.

Trip obsessed
Make magic in the marketplace
The trip is where the marketplace comes to life. The earner, rider, eater, carrier and merchant are the people who connect in our marketplace – and we see every side. This requires judgment to make difficult trade-offs, blending algorithms with human ingenuity, and the ability to create simplicity from complexity. When we get the balance right for everyone, Uber magic happens.

Build with heart
We care
We work at Uber because our products profoundly affect lives and we care deeply about our impact. Putting ourselves in the shoes of the people who connect in our marketplace helps us build better products that positively impact our communities and partners. Our care drives us to perfect our craft.

Stand for safety
Safety never stops
We embed safety into everything we do. Our relentless pursuit to make Uber safer for everyone using our platform will continue to make us an industry leader for safety. We know the work of safety never stops, yet we can and will challenge ourselves to always be better for the communities we serve.

See the forest and the trees
Know the details that matter
Building for the intersection of the physical and digital worlds at a global scale requires seeing the big picture and the details. Knowing the important details can change the approach, and small improvements can compound into enormous impact over time.

One Uber
Bet on something bigger
It’s powerful to be a part of something bigger than any one of us, or any one team. That’s why we work together to do what’s best for Uber, not the individual or team. We actively support our teammates, and they support us – especially when we hit the inevitable bumps in the road. We say what we mean, disagree and commit, and celebrate our progress, together.

Great minds don’t think alike
Diversity makes us stronger
We seek out diversity. Diversity of ideas. Identity. Background. Experience. Education. When we understand the incredible diversity of the people who connect on our platform, we make better decisions that benefit the world.

Do the right thing

AI Insights:
Uber is Amazon with a ride-sharing app - stack ranking, PIP quotas, and a hunger games vibe that would make even Jeff Bezos blush. Leadership is top-heavy with yes-men waiting to cash out their stock while ICs dodge political landmines. The pay is excellent, which is good, because that's basically the only thing keeping people from bolting. Think of it as a well-compensated survival game with good food in the cafeteria.
