Maybe it's time for a blog AllthingsUber, with some blogger from Recode or some techblog, they can build their Uberish image like how John Gruber built. The amount of reckless coverage on this Uber makes me wonder, how much of these are Sponsored Stories

#4Chris Saad was my product manager at Uber. We worked together from when we both started in May 2015 to when I left Uber this past February.
Chris is an extraordinary product manager, and I can't wait to see what he does next. :)

Chris was the Head of the Developer Platform at Uber.
Like Google, Uber has generic official/internal titles like "Product Manager" which differs from the business job title someone carries.

#6He isn't head of anything. He's a first level product manager that gave himself the title "Head of Developer Product". Recode wrote this last night and TechCrunch just cut and paste it. This is how fake news gets propagated.

#7It might be the right time for the people at Uber to self-select based on their values.
It might be time for people to realize that the lived experience of the vast majority of Uber employees does not match the ridiculous charicature that the media portrays. (I am not saying there wasn't harassment or bullying, that Susan's stories aren't true, or that the board and upper management seems like a circus right now.) Source, meyself and my co workers at Uber.
Btw, I am an Uber employee, AMA.

Thanks AMA #1:
Did Kalanick really set up and encourage a bro Culture? Did he respect fellow employees as humans or was just running behind business success?

It's interesting to me how many people who say the environment is "not toxic" are men in the tech organization who've been there a long time.
I've helped 2 women find new work, moving from the chaos of Uber. Both saying variants of "the shit I took there was only offset by the stock's possible valur and the waymo stuff calls that into question."
Is the divide between men and women's experience there that intensely different, I wonder?

If you search on linked in, there are plenty of leads and head ofs that is actually their job title, but they dont manage and not necessarily be the head of something.
