Uber has billions in cash on hand, enough to last a few years paying its workforce during a time of crisis. This move wasn't for survival like many other companies that are in debt, it was to maximise dividends for shareholders for the next few quarters.

she seemed more upset than any of the "parents" of the "school mass shooting" kids 😃

You know they got off that zoom going "That was soo much easier"

When the CEO or HR head needs to read from a script it’s not from the heart. Something like this should never be scripted.

the lady is literally crying

This is the best way to do it. It is sad yet the sooner it is done the sooner you can start to solve it.

Yet when I drove for Uber on the weekends during COVID it was nonstop - they begged me to drive again. I don’t like how they immediately just fire people instead of waiting out the storm

Not long ago "Uber stock skyrockets after CEO says it has plenty of cash to get through coronavirus crisis" . They prioritised the stock price and shareholder value by getting rid of their non essential work force in a time of crisis. That says a lot about Uber and its managers. This woman should have foregone her salary or give her resignation in protest if she cares as much as she pretends.

And they spent $55 Million lobbying for Prop 22 here in California. So they have all this money but rather spend it on lobbying to keep drivers poor. Hey Uber, how about spending your money to actually pay for your drivers/employees that built your company? Vote NO on Prop 22.

These aren’t drivers. Also I think they spent more. It’s called an investment. As a publicly traded company you can’t have employees that aren’t necessary for the business to function. Keep in mind the company has a responsibility to share holders. The company has to focus on customers above employees. People would rather save some money on trips.

Very difficult times. Very difficult to even imagine. It is a swinging sword which could have been anyone. It is just luck that we have survived but not that 3500 Uber employees. My heart goes for them.

I don’t know what else they could do .

..and the oscars for best supporting actress goes to...

Surely I’m not the only one who thinks she looks like Kate Winslet ???

what do you expect? Lots of people lost their businesses and got laid off. No point in a ton of uber drivers sitting around without customers.

Idk I don’t think this was wrong, I’m pretty sure the company does not have resources to call 3,5k employees individually. Even in small groups it would’ve took days, and thats just physically demanding on the employees being layed off. Atleast they got something, other company’s throw it in your face and are Gone

Tough job!

Not sure what's wrong about this. Did they lie? Was ride business not down? I think it goes without saying that if business is down some people might lose jobs. 🤔 Maybe it's just me but whenever I have filled out employment paperwork it has never said I am entitled to the job in perpetuity. Are we questioning the manner in which they let people know? Seems fitting if you are laying off a large group of people if you ask me. I worked for MS testing apps and when week after week there was little to no work they laid off the entire office ...about 30 people. Sucks but it happens.

She s making it dramatic. Fake feelings

I have a friend who runs his own wood working shop and had to lay-off 4 employees under him due to no revenue. Is he evil? No. He’s not. 4 vs 3,500 is no different as the circumstances behind it are the exact same. What would be evil, would be if they had no reason behind Sid lay-offs. Look around.

I'm not a fan of Uber. Deleted my account, in fact after that Susan Fowler blog post made the company's true values clear. However, as these things go, I thought that wasn't too bad. What are you going to do during a pandemic? Personally call 3,500 people? Make it last an hour? Two? I'd rather have the news cleanly and quickly with immediate support in place from HR/other qualified staff who can answer questions about unemployment/other benefits etc. I could have done without the emotional wobble she made sure to include during her announcement. Don't need to make this something it's not.
