Uber, how are things after the layoff?
How are things going after the layoff? Any changes in hiring and compensation? Anything changed about the culture? Maybe more focused on projects that affect profitablity. Is weekly hours increased due to covering for laid off employees.
also is there any variation in different groups? ie uber eats
Same old! I am still shocked about some people that were laid off, but everything is business as usual
I actually think the layoffs affected the company in a positive way, lots of middle management removed which was a little scary at first but I’m beginning to see the benefits. Lots of rest and vesters were laid off too (despite claiming to have high performance). Ultimately it reminded everyone to stop focusing on promo packets and instead do impactful work. People are hustling a little harder now which is good to see. Weekly hours haven’t increased too much, definitely not 80 hours a week or anything, but I do think the prioritization is better. Maybe I’m just an eternal optimist. 🤷♂️
Optimistic
How’s profitability looking? Uber Eats/Freight the new AWS?
Uber eats is a money pit deeper than ride sharing
I'm personally seeing more hustle in my org. Prior Uber was a bit too chill
We are actually functioning better.
Plot twist! Thuanos is the OP!
Products that affect profitability =/= Uber’s business model
As spoken by an Uber employee. Oh wait. Fuck off. Products that affect profitability is a key goal now.
A key goal is different than THE key goal. THE key goal has always been staying afloat until autonomous driving is a reality
