Uber is cutting about 3,300 jobs, roughly 10 percent of its global workforce, in its biggest restructuring since 2020. CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said the layoffs remove management layers, merge delivery and engineering teams, and free up capital for Uber's robotaxi push. Manager numbers fall 20 percent and fully remote roles drop to about 1 percent. Headcount now returns to 2021 levels. Khosrowshahi did not blame AI for the cuts.

Uber is laying off 3,300 employees, about 10% of its global workforce, as CEO Dara Khosrowshahi flattens management layers and tightens office rules. The restructuring copies two moves from Amazon CEO Andy Jassy's playbook: raising the individual contributor to manager ratio, and pulling remote staff back to hubs. Unlike Amazon, Meta and Block, Khosrowshahi did not blame AI.

Uber is cutting about 3,300 jobs, roughly 10% of its workforce, but chief executive Dara Khosrowshahi's email to staff carries a second decision for everyone who stays. Uber is ending work from home for all but 1% of employees, asking remote staff to move to an office near their team. The three-day hybrid policy stays, and Uber will enforce it, with global teams concentrated in New York and San Francisco.

Uber cut about 3,300 jobs earlier this month, close to 10% of its global headcount, and chief executive Dara Khosrowshahi now says riders should eventually see the result of that decision on their fare screen. Speaking at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia + Technology Conference last week, he said the money freed up by the restructuring is going straight back into the business, and that cheaper rides sit near the top of that list.
