Uber is cutting 10% of its global workforce, about 3,300 jobs, while scaling back its remote work policy to focus on in-office presence at key hubs in New York, San Francisco, and other regional and local hubs.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face fewer competitors and a shakeout in ride-hailing as Uber cuts thousands of jobs and limits remote work, signalling a tighter operational focus that could open markets for more nimble local or tech-focused mobility solutions.
