4. "It's a fucking balsy ass move. I applaud her, and I pray for her, lol." In response to In response to 2
but like you said Its a PURE marketing move to have a POC of color as the face of marketing considering the discrimination lawsuits. You KNOW they paid her an obscene amount of money, probably lottery level, to make that move (hopefully she aint take that in stock options, lol)
The thing is I don't think it's enough; they've got NO goodwill across the board
Their CEO is the public face of asshole CEO's Drivers complain they are basically slave labor The discrimination lawsuits Google's suing them for stealing their tech
Their brand is so toxic apparently ex-workers can't get hired..BECAUSE THEY WORKED AT UBER, lol
it's going to take that miracle to right the ship. All she can hope for is to keep the fires down to a minimum for the next couple of years, take that as a win(which sadly it would be), and bounce for a CEO position like you said before it totally sinks.
Long term I see Uber like Friendster or Myspace...setting the groundwork until a 'facebook' comes along and improves the model across the bord.
