Uplyft Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) at Lyft are vital communities that offer spaces for connection, uplift team members’ voices, and promote a sense of belonging for all team members. All team members are invited to join any of Lyft’s ERGs and to attend ERG programming and events. All benefits offered to ERG members are open to all Lyft employees. ERGs are key to community building, growth, networking, and mentorship, actively supporting Lyft's mission and values.
