Now, though, that person will get to call themselves CEO.
The ride-hailing company's former chief executive, Travis Kalanick, resigned the post on Tuesday after getting a letter from investors demanding his departure. At the time he received the letter, he was in Chicago to interview a candidate to be Uber's chief operating officer. Up until Kalanick's resignation, filling that position was the company's top priority.
Now, Uber's board is putting on hold the search for a partner for Kalanick, to start looking for a leader for the new Uber. (Kalanick, though, will have a role in finding his replacement.)
It won't be easy to find an exec willing to take on turning around the embattled company, but here's a list of some of the likely candidates for the job:
- CEO says he tried to hire an AI researcher from Meta, and was told to 'come back to me when you have 10,000 H100 GPUs'
- We bought a house in Japan for $30,000. We'll have more land than we could afford in the US, and our kids will be more independent.
