Ride‑hailing giant Uber is set to cut 3,300 positions as it faces mounting pressure from rivals in the food‑delivery arena and the emerging robotaxi market. The layoffs, which will affect workers across its core ride‑hailing and delivery businesses, come after the company’s delivery unit, Uber Eats, saw its growth slow amid fierce competition from DoorDash, Grubhub and new entrants. Meanwhile, Uber’s autonomous vehicle efforts have stalled, prompting the firm to reallocate resources toward more profitable areas and to streamline its workforce. The move signals a broader shift in the transportation economy, as firms recalibrate strategies to survive in a crowded, tech‑driven landscape.
