Uber Co-Founder Travis Kalanick Resigns Under Pressure As CEO
All that had to happen for him to resign was:
- Lose billions of dollars for years
- Have 500K people delete their app in like a week back in January
- Have a massive company-wide sexual harassment scandal
- Have to pay drivers millions for back-wages since they were under-paid for several years
- Use secret software to try to fool municipal regulators
- Have male managers pose as female managers because drivers were likely to work longer hours
- Secretly track the movements of app users, and only stop when Apple threatened to crack down
- Be accused of stealing Google's self-driving car technology
- Have company parties in Vegas with cocaine and Beyonce
Otherwise he ran a tight ship.
