Q&A With Lyft Employees
IDX: 0 TOT: 65
Is there a diverse workforce or mainly white focus?
Meilleure réponse des employés
not on purpose, but there's a white majority
Diverse compared to my previous company (google), Lyft appears to be 50-50 male female and perhaps ~40% of engineering (25% of company?) is not born in the USA, with asians and indians being most of the non-USA workforce.
I genuinely believe Lyft is working towards a more diverse workforce. It is better than other tech companies I have worked for, but it is still primarily white.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation at Lyft?
If it's slow you have wastes an entire day to barely make enough gas money or toll charge if you are coming from quite a ways away.
