I drove for Uber in a resort town and was appalled by how difficult it was to make any money at it even though I was paid twice the metro rates. The biggest problem is all the unpaid work and investment Uber drivers have to make just to drive for Uber and then Uber takes a huge cut. There are a lot of sunken costs involved in becoming an Uber driver. The driver then has to recover those costs with miserable earnings. I suspect the burn rate of Uber drivers is unsustainably high.
