You get to work with some of the best folks in tech, at least you used to. There are interesting problems to solve at scale.
Leadership used to be highly energetic, smart people with vision. The current CEO has slowly replaced those with corporate drones with limited tech experience who can mostly run a tape loop of asking for KPIs and keep folks busy with useless tactical reviews. Innovation has basically stalled and endless slide shows of almost the tiniest details have taken over.
In the recent uber incident, why uber have given just $20 to the driver and is not filing a case against the women who have misbehaved. I think they should support the driver who is their employee. 😕 Poll question: What uber should do?

When a woman accuses an employee (especially high profile managers and executives, such as the case at Uber), I feel that the man is automatically assumed guilty unless proven otherwise. In such cases, are women required to present evidence of the incident or is just enough to "come forward" with h...Read more
