The most interesting part of the story has been left out? I mean sure, engineers would start to quit, top-flight engineers would quit, etc etc.

But was there any impact to quality of service? Are people not getting Ubers, or waiting longer for Ubers? Were there new food delivery services delayed or did they roll out more or less on time?

Anecdotally the Uber app has gotten a lot more buggy in the past year or so for me. Not to mention the increased cost + waiting time ( though those might not be just engineering related)
