I'd really like to see Kara run a business herself instead of spending her time insulting everyone who's attempted to balance customer expectations and a set of employees at the same time. Maybe she could start with a Burger King or Hardees and then she can tell everyone how much they should be paid. If business leaders listened to everything she's said there wouldn't be a startup economy for her to complain about. I wonder does Kara tip her drivers when she takes an Uber?
In California, Uber is getting $6.80 per mile after fee's, then paying drivers $0.59 cents per mile, Driver pays for Gas costs. Uber keeps $6.00 per mile! Driver must also pay for all car costs, insurance, etc, out of their $0.59 cents a mile.
How can he sleep at night knowing that drivers are getting request for 3-4 dollar delivery’s.. During a pandemic when we’re out here sacrificing our lives to make sure that people eat and we get compensated by3-4 $ fares. I really hope that drivers refuse a fare like that and deny until u get what you want!
Who is this Kara and thank God I had never heard of her before this..Where does this arrogance come from? She's just a journalist, an armchair activist..
The problem is these companies have way too much cash. and no pressure to be profitable. when your back is against the wall thats when you find a way to survive. in this case, they have a long runway.
breakintodance707 they are using Aws(Amazon web services) as an analogy. For amazon AWS was the most profitable part of the business and it was developed separately from its core business. So the lady is asking what is going to Uber’s AWS, if it’s Uber eats or some other business that they have. And Dara responds saying that the ridesharing business meaning just the driving portion is going to be profitable and that is Uber’s version of AWS. I hope that helps.
breakintodance707 He's pronouncing the calculation method of EBITDA as one word. Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, ___________ Depreciation and Amortization
Basically he is saying the future growth of the company is far more profitable than the past. The last 2 quarters, the growth in revenue (not existing revenue), 80% of it went down to EBITDA (revenue with only current operating costs taken out). If that's the case, he goes on to say in the next 2 years they will get probably 8 Billion more business (growth) of which he only needs 3 Billion to go down to EBITDA to make his profit prediction come true. Well he points out 3 of 8 is like 38% and in the last two quarters the growth has been going to EBITDA like 80%. So he thinks it's a slam dunk. A couple cautions. EBITDA is a very poor measure of profitability in such a business (or in any business). Secondly, all of this math is predicated on the idea that most of their expenses are fixed costs and future growth doesn't come with fixed costs. This is probably based off the fact that they think they can get the same drivers to drive more people or deliver more food (more revenue with marginal more cost). At some point this doesn't hold true. Fixed costs and operating costs creep back in. You can make a decision on whether his prediction will come true. I do think, however, to call the Uber core business similar to AWS is a stretch by any imagination.
- Amazon ran for years without being profitable - Years later, Amazon created AWS (which is completely different from their retail site) which is now where they get most of their profit from - Uber has also been running for years without being profitable - So, she's basically asking what Uber is going to build in the future that's going to make them profitable, the same way that Amazon did with AWS
Evan Blansfield Are you a driver? If so, what state, and what category of vehicle do you drive to help the community save money on transportation vs cab prices or low bus fares for longer trips from home to work and back (inconvenience to millions of citizens but a necessity based on low wages and high costs of living).
Ask Dara How can you charge $.65 a mile in California when IRS deductions is $.58 a mile? Or on pool share each additional rider pays drivers only $.60 when a piece of gum is $2 And over $4 a gallon for gas? It is trus that drivers pick their own schedule but everything else is mandated by uber or lyft The driver are being cheated but they have to be involved in negociation tables...

But you are taking most of the fare, and allowing passengers to take advatage of the drivers, and intentionally keeping drivers ratings low, no matter how many five star trips they get.
John Brown I'm seeing this too. Low star ratings stay low for a long time. Their algorithm doesn't work like they claim it does. Dara's star rating is/was 4.75. I picked up "Lucifer" a couple weeks ago. When I saw the name, I laughed and said, "Oh, I must be picking up Dara, the Devil himself!" But Lucifer had a star rating of 4.99. What mother would name their infant "Lucifer?" These fake names need to stop too. Ridiculous!
Robin Rienerth yes what a stupid idea. If drivers have to display their real names , why don’t the passengers?! Who the hell knows who we could be picking up! Oh , I forgot . Drivers lives aren’t important, but riders can do whatever they want !
@Mil Mac . Dara K is one bullshit merchant who is paid big bucks to talk Uber up. You say Dara will turn around the company....empty words losing billions of $ in any quarter. Share price going down and will go to $20. Investors can’t leave quickly .
Most drivers have quit. I drove for 2 years and now it’s not worth it anymore. You make $3 dollars for a ride that takes 20-30 minutes to complete. No thanks!
Ed. Hi . It is good to hear from someone who has been thru bad experience with Uber. I would assume that you are not alone. Uber will go down the shit Shute in a big hurry. As at 11/7/2019 share price $25.75 and on the downward slide. Bankruptcy around the corner.
WTF! "we've got billions in cash and I'm expecting a 50 million dollar bonus check next year" And drivers are living in their cars and can't pay their Bill's lol this guy knows he walks away with millions whatever the future holds outstanding!
Ace Montoya - driving for uber is supposed to be just a gig.. people turn it into a full time job, why to blame uber for that? Again - it’s just a gig, not a career path
Thank you for letting me know about your left-leaning values. Police do great work all around this country every day. Your words say the opposite. Your words speak of generalizations and stereotypes of brutality and racism. I do not believe this is, as a whole, correct. There will always be parts of our society that are deplorable creep into our police, military, fire and other organizations. However, your generalization defines you and your organization. As long as you are the CEO, I will no longer use Uber until you retract your thoughtless statement concerning “police brutality”. I have never been a police officer, but I have been military for over 20 years. Our organization was defined by the actions of the few in Vietnam. Thousands of Soldiers who served honorably came back to being spit in the face and physically abused by people like you. They were called baby killers and only served their country, because their country sent them there. In this day in age, we have it again, but domestically the same is happening to our police community. You sir, and people like you, are inciting this notion and the riots. I reject your beliefs and your company. Good bye, at least while you remain as CEO or when I hear about your retracted, inflammatory statements.
@@williamhill5954 I drive for a living for the last 15 years. Just not for Uber. Good response though. Very intelligent. Uber is meant to be a side job for supplemental income. The pay most uber drivers make comes out to 10$ per hour or less after expenses. If you choose to make this your full time job that is fine but it's your choice in the end. They arent screwing anybody over.
Dara K is a desperate con man talking rubbish. IPO share issue at $45 now 11/12/2019 $26 this is a red flag. Investors can’t wait to get out of Uber shares. Estimated future share price is $20.

@@warrenlowe5389 Uber's in a difficult position. If they increase prices to become profitable then they lose the advantage that they have over taxis. I can't see them going bankrupt but at the same time I don't see the share price going up much over the next few years.
Juan Pablo you should think a bit more, investors must make their own due diligence. The stock was overvalued by its private investors. If you bought the stock a the IPO valuations it is your issue. Dara is a the right CEO for this period of Uber, time will tell whether or not his strategy is the right one in the long term.
