I agree that Uber has a net positive social impact, but the Kapors are nevertheless right to try to force change here.
1) They have more direct control over, and responsibility for, Uber corporate behavior.
2) Uber corporate culture might bleed over to the customer experience.
3) The behaviors in practice at Uber are not good for anyone, even the "high-performing" assholes whose behavior is excused. Those behaviors keep talented prospective employees away and make current employees less effective.
- yummyfajitas 10y agoUber may, in fact, have an HR problem that needs fixing. I'll wait for the investigation to find out - Fowler seems fairly credible, but far too many incidents like this seem fabricated/unsupported/implausible, and get traction mainly because the media loves them. I was only disputing the specific point I quoted. Even if everything Susan Fowler said is true, Uber is still a social good that is fixing racism in taxi cabs.
