It's really mind-boggling this happened after less than 6 months at Uber. I wonder what it must be to work there. Sounds absolutely horrifying.

I know someone who left after 6 months for similar reasons, fortunately things didn't go as far for them as this poor man. I was warned off joining the company by that engineer and often think about how lucky I am to have dodged such a toxic place.

It's not just Uber. There is no shortage of toxic workplaces, sadly.

Nobody's saying it's just Uber, but this post is about Uber.
