Uber Technologies will lay off about 3,300 employees, accounting for 10% of the global workforce, and carry out a large-scale restructuring aimed at reducing management levels and reinvesting expenses into online car-hailing, takeout, and autonomous taxi businesses. According to an email, CEO Dara Kosrosasi announced the adjustments. He said that Uber's business growth in recent years has given rise to “more levels, more coordination links, and a more fragmented division of authority and responsibility; some structures are still stylish and reasonable in the scale of the business, but they are no longer suited to the company's current size.” An Uber spokesperson said that the layoffs will reduce the number of company managers by 20%, and some managers will be converted to full-time business personnel in non-management positions. However, the company did not disclose the exact proportion of managers laid off; this layoff also covered non-management employees.
