I have a close friend, working for Uber since 5-6 years now. I don't think he ever expected company to engage in anything shady. SWEs are higher up than service counter staff but in the game of business they are not far from being expensive pawns. Sorry


So he started 5-6 years ago, after Uber was already caught doing shady shit? Does not compute.

I don't think Uber was ever particularly transparent, whereas I believe the other poster was implying that all Stripe employees can see revenue, profit margin, etc. plainly, which seems very uncommon for a non-public corp.


I don't remember their exact date. It's been a long time. They joined before IPO. My point was it was fairly long
