 We are always looking                for qualified workers        412 00:18:57,594 --> 00:18:59,012       with the right attitude.       413 00:18:59,054 --> 00:19:00,430            If you're good,                       you're hired.            414 00:19:00,472 --> 00:19:01,849          And if you get it,          415 00:19:01,890 --> 00:19:03,851            then you stick                    regardless of gender.        416 00:19:03,892 --> 00:19:05,769              [chuckles]                        You believe that?          417 00:19:05,811 --> 00:19:08,647      It's not about belief, Tim.              I can see our data.         418 00:19:08,689 --> 00:19:10,816               [laughs]                        Data can be biased.         419 00:19:10,858 --> 00:19:13,152            So can people.            420 00:19:13,193 --> 00:19:15,154       Anyway, I think I've more          than answered your question.     421 00:19:15,195 --> 00:19:17,239         Oh, no, this inquiry               is just getting started.       422 00:19:17,281 --> 00:19:20,492    You'll answer for every aspect               of your company           423 00:19:20,534 --> 00:19:22,703      before I decide if you stay            alive and in the store.       424 00:19:25,372 --> 00:19:28,625              Okay, well,                   if you're judge and jury,      425 00:19:28,667 --> 00:19:33,130          then may I continue                     my testimony?            426 00:19:33,172 --> 00:19:36,049      Sure. Start with an answer               to Tim's question.          427 00:19:36,091 --> 00:19:38,844     Why are your attrition rates              for women so high?          428 00:19:42,681 --> 00:19:45,100           It is imperative you do            a temple stay at Bongeunsa  429 00:19:45,142 --> 00:19:46,977               when you're in Seoul                     with Gabi.        430 00:19:47,019 --> 00:19:48,687          It will balance your chi.  431 00:19:48,729 --> 00:19:50,439         -That sounds amazing.                        -Hmm.                432 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,065          Hold the elevator.          433 00:19:52,107 --> 00:19:53,942      -Can I say one more thing?                      -Yes.                434 00:19:53,984 --> 00:19:56,278        What should I do about              this constant questioning      435 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,155           of our accounting                       practices?              436 00:19:58,197 --> 00:20:00,866              Don't break any rules                      or laws.         437 00:20:00,908 --> 00:20:03,035              And if Gurley keeps                coming at you about it,  438 00:20:03,076 --> 00:20:06,955              just tell him to kiss                    your EBITDA.       439 00:20:06,997 --> 00:20:08,540                             [kiss]  440 00:20:08,582 --> 00:20:10,209              -Thank you!                          -Of course.             441 00:20:13,045 --> 00:20:15,881    I'll tell you why the attrition         rate for women at Uber        442 00:20:15,923 --> 00:20:17,883              is so high.             443 00:20:17,925 --> 00:20:20,469         Isaiah Berlin wrote:               I wish to be the subject,      444 00:20:20,510 --> 00:20:22,346      not the object of my life.      445 00:20:22,387 --> 00:20:24,056     Couldn't have said it better.    446 00:20:24,097 --> 00:20:26,683     So, let me introduce myself.     447 00:20:26,725 --> 00:20:28,518       My name is Susan Fowler.       448 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,854         You'll remember me as            the site reliability engineer    449 00:20:30,896 --> 00:20:34,066     who was sexually harassed on         her first day of work at Uber.  450 00:20:34,107 --> 00:20:38,362         Anne-Marie in HR suggested              I find a new team.       451 00:20:38,403 --> 00:20:40,030     Her way of telling me to quit.  452 00:20:40,072 --> 00:20:42,074             But I've come                      too far to quit.           453 00:20:42,115 --> 00:20:44,993     So, after months of floating                in Uber limbo,            454 00:20:45,035 --> 00:20:46,745          I found a new team.         455 00:20:46,787 --> 00:20:48,288         And it's a great one.        456 00:20:48,330 --> 00:20:50,123            And I wish people                     Liked me more            457 00:20:50,165 --> 00:20:51,917                All I did                       Was try my best...         458 00:20:53,585 --> 00:20:54,962                [Susan]                     That's my new manager, Kevin.  459 00:20:57,005 --> 00:20:59,633           I chose his team                  because it's 25% women,       460 00:20:59,675 --> 00:21:01,802        which, paltry as it is,       461 00:21:01,843 --> 00:21:03,971         is the highest ratio                    in the company.           462 00:21:04,012 --> 00:21:06,890     If we can split our monolith            in under three months,        463 00:21:06,932 --> 00:21:09,893       every person on the team            will get this dope jacket.      464 00:21:09,935 --> 00:21:11,561              -[applause]                     -Check it out, dude.         465 00:21:11,603 --> 00:21:14,648         A monolith is a block                of thousands of lines        466 00:21:14,690 --> 00:21:16,275       of Uber's operating code.      467 00:21:16,316 --> 00:21:18,610        The goal is to separate                  and reorganize            468 00:21:18,652 --> 00:21:21,488           the block of code                  into individual lines        469 00:21:21,530 --> 00:21:23,282        called "microservices."       470 00:21:23,323 --> 00:21:25,784       They make the code easier              to access and repair         471 00:21:25,826 --> 00:21:27,619        should it malfunction.        472 00:21:27,661 --> 00:21:30,706  TLDR, I'm a techie Marie Kondo.    473 00:21:30,747 --> 00:21:33,625       And coffee brings me joy.      474 00:21:34,668 --> 00:21:36,628            So does my job.           475 00:21:36,670 --> 00:21:39,631      "Job" doesn't even seem like        enough of a supercharged word    476 00:21:39,673 --> 00:21:41,633       for how I view what I do.      477 00:21:41,675 --> 00:21:43,719        It's more of a mission.       478 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,470      I obsess about it so much,      479 00:21:45,512 --> 00:21:47,514         I started writing about it               on my blog:             480 00:21:49,808 --> 00:21:53,186          I even wrote a book about           my experiences as an SRE.  481 00:21:53,228 --> 00:21:55,772       It's a bestseller on Amazon.  482 00:21:55,814 --> 00:21:59,151           HR's reaming me,              said my team's too homogenous.    483 00:21:59,192 --> 00:22:02,863         Ideological diversity                   doesn't count.            484 00:22:02,904 --> 00:22:04,156         How do you keep them                     on your team?            485 00:22:04,197 --> 00:22:06,158            Trade secrets.                      And if I keep it           486 00:22:06,199 --> 00:22:09,328          above 23.4% female,                   it's Tesla time.           487 00:22:09,369 --> 00:22:11,663  All the ladies love Kev.           488 00:22:11,705 --> 00:22:13,999          Really, seriously,                        fuck you.              489 00:22:14,041 --> 00:22:15,834             [both laugh]             490 00:22:17,878 --> 00:22:20,464         Fowler, perfect score             on your performance review.     491

 I could use your approval                on my application          494 00:22:25,969 --> 00:22:28,221        for manager of SRE II.        495 00:22:31,099 --> 00:22:32,851     Once you finish the monolith,                  no doubt.              496 00:22:32,893 --> 00:22:34,644             Thanks, Kev.             497 00:22:34,686 --> 00:22:37,522            Kevin's great,                   but he hasn't inured me       498 00:22:37,564 --> 00:22:39,524           to the realities                     of working here.           499 00:22:39,566 --> 00:22:41,026         I could call it out.         500 00:22:41,068 --> 00:22:42,986            I could make up                    20 small-dick jokes         501 00:22:43,028 --> 00:22:45,197             and hurl them                  at the likely offenders.       502 00:22:46,990 --> 00:22:48,867            Better to just                     make it disappear.          503 00:22:51,244 --> 00:22:54,039      But this, the old familiar                   ass ogling,             504 00:22:54,081 --> 00:22:55,707         that I cannot erase.         505 00:22:55,749 --> 00:22:58,418    So I get to report that to HR.    506 00:22:59,753 --> 00:23:01,004                Again.                507 00:23:01,046 --> 00:23:03,048       Not that they'll respond.      508 00:23:03,090 --> 00:23:05,759  Here's a descriptor that's going       to land like a giant turd:      509 00:23:05,801 --> 00:23:06,968               "toxic."               510 00:23:11,139 --> 00:23:14,059    I'm the first to admit "toxic"            has lost all meaning         511 00:23:14,101 --> 00:23:15,685         in the general sense.        512 00:23:15,727 --> 00:23:17,604      That's why we have to tell                  our stories.             513 00:23:17,646 --> 00:23:19,106         The specifics matter,        514 00:23:19,147 --> 00:23:21,441         because each specific                  is another human           515 00:23:21,483 --> 00:23:23,193        pushed that much closer                   to the edge.             516 00:23:27,447 --> 00:23:30,909    Take Alison, a kickass engineer             from Cal Tech.            517 00:23:30,951 --> 00:23:32,411             She's leaving                   because her team leader       518 00:23:32,452 --> 00:23:34,538       constantly double-checks                     her work.              519 00:23:34,579 --> 00:23:37,165        He says she's too hot                to be a good engineer.        520 00:23:37,207 --> 00:23:38,917           I got this feeling        521 00:23:38,959 --> 00:23:41,253             On the summer day                  When you were gone         522 00:23:41,294 --> 00:23:43,088             I crashed my car                    Into the bridge           523 00:23:43,130 --> 00:23:45,257                I watched                        I let it I burn           524 00:23:45,298 --> 00:23:47,592            I threw your shit                   Into a bag...              525 00:23:47,634 --> 00:23:49,594      Fran didn't even come back                  to the office            526 00:23:49,636 --> 00:23:51,596        the day after her team                  held an all-hands          527 00:23:51,638 --> 00:23:56,017      at an all-nude strip club,       and they dubbed her No Fun Fran.  528 00:24:00,147 --> 00:24:02,274             Grace is such                   a brilliant programmer.       529 00:24:02,315 --> 00:24:06,069       She's had her work stolen             by our SVP five times.        530 00:24:06,111 --> 00:24:07,779      Each time she reported it,      531 00:24:07,821 --> 00:24:09,781     he thanked her for taking one                for the team,            532 00:24:09,823 --> 00:24:12,576      then promoted mediocre men                    over her.              533 00:24:12,617 --> 00:24:14,744             Understandably,                      she lost her shit.         534 00:24:14,786 --> 00:24:15,996            Now she's "crazy."         535 00:24:20,500 --> 00:24:22,127         Literally half of you                  are looking at me          536 00:24:22,169 --> 00:24:25,297          like I am the most             strict-slash-least fun teacher    537 00:24:25,338 --> 00:24:27,090       you had in middle school.      538 00:24:27,132 --> 00:24:29,843      I just ruined your fucking           tree house club at recess       539 00:24:29,885 --> 00:24:32,012             when I found                     your dirty magazines.        540 00:24:32,053 --> 00:24:33,597          I make you remember         541 00:24:33,638 --> 00:24:35,474

00:24:42,397      But the other half of you,                   well, sure,             544 00:24:42,439 --> 00:24:44,774            some of you are              the get-along-to-go-along types  545

00:24:52,616        that no matter how hard               you tried to fit in,         548 00:24:52,657 --> 00:24:55,160        you just don't belong.        549 00:24:55,202 --> 00:24:57,162          And that's because                 they don't want you to.       550 00:24:58,288 --> 00:24:59,915          I love it, I love it       551 00:24:59,956 --> 00:25:02,000              I don't care

 We couldn't justify purchasing    562 00:25:28,568 --> 00:25:29,903       six jackets at full cost                  for the women.            563 00:25:29,945 --> 00:25:31,613  Wouldn't be fair.                  564 00:25:31,655 --> 00:25:33,990       But it's fair to not have             leather jackets for us?       565 00:25:34,032 --> 00:25:35,909          I'll take that one,

 but not being so uninteresting    817 00:36:57,924 --> 00:36:59,217        that they write nothing                     about us.              818 00:36:59,258 --> 00:37:01,219  Why is Olivia Lungociu in here?    819 00:37:01,260 --> 00:37:02,720               [Travis]                      Wait, what? No, no, no.       820 00:37:02,762 --> 00:37:05,181  Who invited her?                   821 00:37:05,223 --> 00:37:07,558         I thought it would be                     a good idea             822 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,393             for you guys                       to make friends.           823 00:37:09,435 --> 00:37:11,312  Fuck no. She is out.               824 00:37:11,354 --> 00:37:12,647  Everything we're doing tonight,    825 00:37:12,688 -->

00:37:16,692 --> 00:37:19,654    The point of tonight is to get         her colleagues on our side.     828 00:37:19,695 --> 00:37:21,739        They write nice things            about us. She's the asshole.     829 00:37:21,781 --> 00:37:23,241              Okay, fine.             830 00:37:23,282 --> 00:37:25,576        Rachel, make the call.        831 00:37:25,618 --> 00:37:27,703           Jesus, have to do                  everything ourselves?        832 00:37:27,745 --> 00:37:29,372       -That was a great catch.             -Oh, all right.                833

00:37:34,168      but there are still topics                    to avoid.              836 00:37:34,210 --> 00:37:38,089        The boy who was killed,               X to the X or Miami,         837 00:37:38,130 --> 00:37:40,800    attacked and murdered drivers,          friction with the board.       838 00:37:40,841 --> 00:37:42,718            Can we ask them               why they're such dicks to us?    839 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:43,970  Adding that to the no-fly list.    840 00:37:44,011 --> 00:37:45,638           Do not talk about                      how unfairly             841 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,682     you feel you've been treated                 by the press,            842 00:37:47,723 --> 00:37:49,100       or women being assaulted.      843 00:37:49,141 --> 00:37:50,476            -Do not talk--                    -[Travis] We get it.         844 00:37:50,518 --> 00:37:52,061       It's just a SportsCenter                     Top Ten.               845 00:37:52,103 --> 00:37:54,230  I'm not done.                       Don't talk about                   846 00:37:54,272 --> 00:37:56,399          expansion in China

                   emotional subjects.         849 00:38:01,988 --> 00:38:03,114            We understand?            850 00:38:05,408 --> 00:38:08,619    [Tim] Now, I would like to talk      about your driver experience,    851 00:38:08,661 --> 00:38:11,080         'cause your company's                   revenue stream            852 00:38:11,122 --> 00:38:12,540          relies on the will                     of your drivers           853 00:38:12,581 --> 00:38:14,083    to the point that you call them                partners.              854 00:38:14,125 --> 00:38:15,626  Well, that's a figure of spee--    855 00:38:15,668 --> 00:38:17,628       If they don't drive,            your business stops, Travis.       856 00:38:17,670 --> 00:38:20,298      Yet, you do not prioritize      857 00:38:20,339 --> 00:38:22,883          driver satisfaction                    and retention.            858 00:38:27,096 --> 00:38:29,890     Is that a nice way of saying         I treat my drivers like shit?    859 00:38:33,436 --> 00:38:36,480        Maybe I should ask you                   about Foxconn.            860 00:38:38,149 --> 00:38:39,358                         Excuse me?  861 00:38:45,406 --> 00:38:47,241               [scoffs]               862 00:38:47,283 --> 00:38:48,784             Just saying.             863 00:38:48,826 --> 00:38:51,245       Um, we're not your peers       864 00:38:51,287 --> 00:38:53,289      or your employees, Travis.      865 00:38:53,331 --> 00:38:56,250      You know, I'm sitting here       wondering why you won't grant us  866 00:38:56,292 --> 00:38:58,085           the same respect                 that we are according you      867 00:38:58,127 --> 00:38:59,670         at this very moment.         868 00:38:59,712 --> 00:39:02,048              I'm sorry.                    Okay, driver experience.       869 00:39:03,299 --> 00:39:05,593    So there are some complainers.    870 00:39:05,634 --> 00:39:07,678     But if you look at the data,     871 00:39:07,720 --> 00:39:11,098         my drivers have never                 driven more hours,          872 00:39:11,140 --> 00:39:13,684           made more money,                     or been happier.           873 00:39:13,726 --> 00:39:15,770          My drivers love me.                  And they love Uber.         874 00:39:16,979 --> 00:39:18,647            Let's move on.            875 00:39:18,689 --> 00:39:20,649         I can tell you about             the Uber driving experience.     876 00:39:20,691 --> 00:39:21,859  Come.                              877 00:39:23,486 --> 00:39:25,029           Last you saw me,           878 00:39:25,071 --> 00:39:26,697           I was in the car                   with Travis Kalanick.        879 00:39:26,739 --> 00:39:30,451        And as you could hear,                 it didn't end well.         880 00:39:30,493 --> 00:39:31,702          You need to publish                      this video.             881 00:39:31,744 --> 00:39:33,162            The world needs                        to see it.              882 00:39:33,204 --> 00:39:35,748  He's a rich man.                    He could ruin me.                  883 00:39:35,790 --> 00:39:39,293    Your cousin Malik is a lawyer.        He will help you protect us.     884 00:39:39,335 --> 00:39:41,003           You can't let him                   get away with this.         885 00:39:41,045 --> 00:39:42,505  We all have bad days.              886 00:39:42,546 --> 00:39:45,049  Why should he be penalized                  for that, Z?                887 00:39:45,091 --> 00:39:47,051      He is not your friend, Fawzi.  888 00:39:47,093 --> 00:39:48,552                             [tsks]  889 00:39:52,556 --> 00:39:55,017          I want to formally                   introduce myself.           890 00:39:55,059 --> 00:39:56,560           I'm Fawzi Kamel.           891 00:39:56,602 --> 00:39:58,687            And yes, sure,            892 00:39:58,729 --> 00:40:01,232           I should probably                 do as my wife insists.        893 00:40:01,273 --> 00:40:04,485         She's usually right,            maddening as that fact can be.    894 00:40:04,527 --> 00:40:06,779    And if you tell her I said it,    895 00:40:06,821 --> 00:40:08,280             I'll drop you                      far from the curb          896 00:40:08,322 --> 00:40:10,741       so you get your pant leg                soaked in a puddle.         897 00:40:10,783 --> 00:40:14,745      But, really, even if I want              to post the video,          898 00:40:14,787 --> 00:40:16,539        what will it really do?       899 00:40:16,580 --> 00:40:18,874            Cost me my job?           900 00:40:18,916 --> 00:40:20,918          [car engine starts]         901 00:40:22,294 --> 00:40:24,380        I came to this country                    15 years ago             902 00:40:24,422 --> 00:40:26,424             with a degree                    in civil engineering.        903 00:40:26,465 --> 00:40:28,676           But in the U.S.,                  the degree was no good.       904 00:40:28,717 --> 00:40:31,762       So my uncle got me a job                 at Lenny's Limos.          905 00:40:31,804 --> 00:40:34,849          I worked at night,                 attended school by day.       906 00:40:34,890 --> 00:40:37,101       But it was unsustainable.      907 00:40:37,143 --> 00:40:42,106     Unlike my cousin, the lawyer,               I had a family.           908 00:40:42,148 --> 00:40:44,275        Driving became my life.       909 00:40:44,316 --> 00:40:48,654  It was okay, and then Uber came     along and made driving better.     910 00:40:48,696 --> 00:40:50,656              For a time,                  it gave me the opportunity      911 00:40:50,698 --> 00:40:53,742         to work for myself,                  choose my own hours,         912 00:40:53,784 --> 00:40:55,411

       915 00:41:07,965 --> 00:41:11,010     But that's the ups and downs            of the business, right?       916 00:41:11,051 --> 00:41:14,430        I have hope,   inshallah,

 We helped him build                     this company.            919 00:41:25,399 --> 00:41:28,068            He said we were                  his business partners,        920 00:41:28,110 --> 00:41:32,364  so I doubled down and made an       investment in our partnership.     921 00:41:32,406 --> 00:41:35,951  I purchased a new luxury vehicle   with the help of Uber financing    922

00:41:45,961             the payments                      are now impossible.         925 00:41:46,003 --> 00:41:49,256  Mr. Kalanick refuses to help.      926 00:41:53,052 --> 00:41:54,929         Is this how you treat                     a partner?              927 00:42:13,906 --> 00:42:15,991     Well, Mr. Kalanick could sue           if you release the video,      928 00:42:16,033 --> 00:42:17,826        but he probably won't.        929 00:42:17,868 --> 00:42:20,204  It'll only make him look worse.    930 00:42:20,246 --> 00:42:23,749       Can I still work for Uber

 But then people like Ben Smith,    1152 00:52:51,793 --> 00:52:55,839         they just hate seeing                    winners win.             1153 00:52:55,881 --> 00:52:57,549         So they tear us down,        1154 00:52:57,591 --> 00:52:59,467        makes them feel better            about their sad little lives.    1155 00:52:59,509 --> 00:53:00,886       I mean, Olivia Lungociu,       1156 00:53:00,927 --> 00:53:03,013            does she really                   have to write a story        1157 00:53:03,054 --> 00:53:06,016

 And she got your attention,                  didn't she?             1162 00:53:12,355 --> 00:53:14,357          And then Ben Smith                  got everyone else's.         1163 00:53:14,399 -->
