I wish I could agree. Uber is well known for being unafraid of criminal actions to protect their "Bottom line".

I'm not aware of those kinds of practices under the new CEO. Are you?

It's great that Uber changed the CEO and he's trying to change the culture. But that doesn't happen overnight. This is a 9 year old company with 12000 employees. It has a culture that has been built and reinforced over that time. As CEO, he doesnt make decisions at the front line directly, and it may take him a few years to convince everyone in the company to adopt his rules (and he may even fail, depending on the incentives inside the company). There's no magic wand a CEO can use to change a company overnight.

Are you joking? Uber has always flaunted laws. Even in their home town it was illegal to offer a taxi service without a license. They did it anyway. Later, the city decided to differentiate between ride hailing via app and sticking your arm out to hail a cab. That change happened after uber broke the law.

I've seen criminal behavior at a much more reputable organization. Top-10 university, senior leadership. Much more criminal.

This shit happens and it's more common than you'd think.

Sad but true.
