Uber cuts 3000 jobs
A few weeks ago, the ride-sharing company, Uber, announced their first round of layoffs which sent shockwaves through the industry.

CEO, Dara Khosrowshahi informed employees about their news of closing 45 offices across the world. If you club this layoff with the one from a few weeks ago, a combined 25% of the company's workforce has been let go.
