The Lyft service is rock solid, it's just not a very profitable business. That has nothing to do with engineering talent.
Engineers need to stop being bitter about others making more money than them and start roasting the business people that fail to make the company profitable. Even if they make 1/3 of what engineers do, they fail at their primary job function and need to be let go.

- disgruntledphd2 4y agoTaking a high salary from a structurally unprofitable company is a massive risk. This has been hidden by the endless amounts of cheap money in the last decade but it's always worth thinking about. I realised in 2016 that Uber/Lyft were never gonna print cash so I didn't work for them.
