Uber Freight Restructures While Ramping Up Hiring

Uber Freight is eliminating approximately 80 positions across multiple departments as part of an organizational restructuring. The cuts represent roughly 1.7% of the logistics technology company's workforce and aim to streamline operations and eliminate overlapping responsibilities. CEO Rebecca Tinucci said in an internal memo that the changes position the company for future growth. Despite the reductions, Uber Freight maintains 290 open positions and hired 55 employees over the past month. The company is expanding its managed transportation business, which has seen deal volume increase 2.5 times year-over-year. Uber Freight also recently added 18 employees to its customer engagement team supporting transportation management system users. The company emphasized the restructuring reflects operational adjustments rather than response to freight market conditions.
