“June 12, 2023 interview with the CEO of Uber Dara Khosrowshahi marks the 3rd inter new I have listen too, each one fictitious then the last. As a driver on the Uber platform I can assure you that my”take” is nearly 40% less than it was 5 years ago and seems to continue that steady decline. My hourly “take” has been reduced from a high of $42.00 per hour to its current state of $25.00. These hourly rates include tips and incentives and do not include the cost and operation of the car (the rewards offered by Uber can be arranged by anyone and offer no relief). Each year my cost of operating my vehicle increase while this platform “takes” more to fill their pockets. Dara, the executive team, Uber corporate associates and venture capitalist wages increase hardily while the drive struggle.Uber pays their court ordered judgements, insurance cost and advertising and driver incentives out of the pockets of the drivers.,
Uber claims to listen to the :”earners” however this is simply untrue in every way, worse when you speak to someone they are rude, consenting, belittling and down right nasty. While Uber expects professionalism and respect they offer none in return.
Safety is top priority according too Uber however this is simply not true. Taking “earners” through alleys for pickups drops offs, expressway entrances that take you across 5 lanes of high speed traffic to exit, taking you through pedestrian walkways and directions that are entirely wrong.
My point in this review is to say while Acquired is a exceptional podcast to listen to your guest only show one side of the story and in the corporate world a CEO is going to showcase his company is not just a “Best Light” but lie to make him and his company look amazing.
It would be great to see your medium showcase a different perspective. S
m showcase reality at least in this respect.
Thank you for listening
