Uber is laying off 10% of staff, or 3,300 people

Uber is cutting approximately 10% of its workforce, or around 3,300 employees, as part of a restructuring effort aimed at streamlining management and increasing investment in core areas like ride-sharing, delivery, and robotaxi services. The decision was announced via an internal email from CEO Dara Khosrowshahi and published online. The restructuring includes reducing the number of managers by 20%, consolidating certain departments such as engineering, science, and delivery, and eliminating remote work opportunities except for less than 1% of staff. The move comes after Uber's expansion into new markets and product lines, which the company says has led to increased complexity and inefficiencies.
