As Uber Exits Nigeria, Company Cuts 3,300 Jobs in Major Global Restructuring

Uber is cutting about 3,300 jobs, equivalent to roughly 10% of its global workforce , as the ride-hailing giant moves to simplify its organisation and redirect resources towards areas including mobility, delivery and autonomous vehicles. The restructuring comes as Uber is also retreating from selected markets. On the same day the company announced the workforce changes, it ended its ride-hailing operations in Nigeria and Uganda , bringing its 12-year presence in Nigeria to a close.
