In this post, we compare Uber and Lyft's office spaces, and leave it up to you to decide which office and culture you would rather be a part of.

When viewing these photos, think about who both Uber and Lyft are trying to attract as clients and employees. Then, think about your office space and how your setup attracts the right people.
Which company would you rather be a part of?
