Previously at Uber, Skyscanner, Skype/Microsoft. I love to help people grow and share what I learned. I write longer articles on software engineering at blog.pragmaticengineer.com.
I saw Uber change a lot since - things like equal pay, expectations on collaboration and being nice to each other (citizenship) being expected of all developers. There's also less rewarding of individual heroism, especially if it involves pushing other people aside. I would not hire anyone on my team who displays any signs of being a brilliant jerk, and I am pretty sure this is across Uber (however, I cannot talk to others).
I can only share my opinion - the company is vast and each team is different. Stats might tell a story, if they were available or public. I can only share what I've know: of the about 25 people who work or ever worked on my team the past 3.5 years, all are still with the company, no one left. Even though I am certain that all of them have their Linkedin inboxes full with great opportunities, and could easily change companies, if not happy.
