Many users after installing the 10.9.3 couldn't see the users folder and subfolder. Some kind of bug made the folder hidden.
In order to permanently resolve this issue, follow the following instructions I found on the Apple discussions forum:

Start your computer with Alt + CMD + P + R in order to do a PRAM reset
Then start your computer with CMD + R for recovery partition boot
Launch Disk Utility and repair permissions. Quit Disk Utility and open Terminal (Utilities -> Terminal) and type :

cd /Volumes/Macintosh\ HD (or the name of your partition)
chmod 755 Users
chmod 755 Users/Shared
chflags nohidden Users
chflags nohidden Users/Shared
