Uber Overview

At Uber, we ignite opportunity by setting the world in motion.

We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. We seek to build a workplace that is inclusive of everyone, and where people from every background can thrive.
