Uber says laying off 'about 10%' of workforce worldwide
Uber has a total of roughly 34,000 employees with operations in more than 70 countries, according to a recent SEC filing
Uber is reducing its workforce by approximately 10 percent globally, according to CEO Dara Khosrowshahi's message to employees. The company, which boasts about 34,000 employees across more than 70 countries, aims to streamline operations and make its platform simpler and faster. Khosrowshahi stated that the layoffs would result in clearer ownership, faster decision-making, and more time spent building rather than coordinating.
The restructuring is designed to eliminate managerial layers, with only a small percentage of employees allowed to work remotely in the future.
