Uber Sacks 3,500 Employees Via A Zoom Call by Nobody: 5:16pm On May 14, 2020
'Today will be your last working day with Uber.' Watch as choked up executive tells 3,500 rideshare employees they are being laid off effective immediately over a three-minute ZOOM call

At least 3,500 Uber employees learned that they were being laid off in a three-minute Zoom call last week.

DailyMail.com obtained video of the call where Ruffin Chaveleau, head of Uber's customer service, broke the news.

'We are eliminating 3,500 frontline customer support roles,' Chaveleau said. 'Your role is impacted and today will be your last working day with Uber'.

The cuts were be made among customer support and recruiting teams, meaning driver number will be largely unaffected.

A former Uber employee, who asked to remain anonymous, slammed the company for laying off so many people on a Zoom call and for the lack of notice.

I hope airbnb doesn't collapse after this not necessarily because of covid-19 lockdown all over the world but people's reaction to allowing others stay in their house because of the fear of the virus

Imagine getting laid off without the courtesy of saying bye-bye to your office mates.

Brutal.

Which business model isn't vulnerable? As long as it's a transport-oriented business, this could be a very tough period for them cos movement has been largely reduced and e-channels are taking over.

You obviously didn't comprehend what the post said... They were not talking about Uber drivers but their customer service and recruiting team. The drivers can always port to another app if Uber becomes defunct, so no driver can be sacked...
