Why did you become an engineer? I can understand if your answer is money, respect or ”doing math and coding is fun” really, that’s enough for me, you don’t need to do it to save the world, and Uber does offer money, respect, and opportunities to do math and code. But, wouldn’t you rather sleep knowing you don’t support a company that screws over people like this poor woman? There are plenty of companies screaming after good engineers, why do you support such a rotten, morally bankrupt management by writing their code for them? Can you honestly talk about the stuff you knew your company did, and all the opportunities out there you passed on, to your children with a straight face?
Because I would like to see the snakes in Uber’s management write their own code and explain away responsibility the next time a scandal hits them.
