‘This is just business, not personal’: Laid-off employee shares journey from driver to Uber manager
A man who worked at Uber for 10 years, starting as a driver and rising to manager, reflects on losing his job amid layoffs.
A long-time Uber employee who has climbed from driving rides to a managerial position inside the company has opened up about his experience during the recent mass layoffs. The individual heard about the cuts through an email at 4 AM and reflected on his decade-long career with the ride-sharing giant. He began his journey as a driver in 2015 and later transitioned to corporate roles, working on promotions, events, and UberEats.
However, his time at Uber was not without challenges, including layoffs that forced him to work on new teams. Despite the setbacks, he remained dedicated to the company and its mission. Now, as he faces his own layoff, he urges his colleagues to remain hopeful and emphasizes that the decision is purely business-related and not personal.
