Tuesday, 20 June 2017, the founder and CEO of Uber Travis Kalanick has resigned.
Kalanick announced last week that he is sent on leave indefinitely because of the death of his mother, who died in the accident. Speaking about the reasons, it is reported that Travis resigned, because this was demanded by the investors.
"I love Uber more than anything in the world, and in this difficult time in my personal life, I accepted the requirement of investors to go to Uber can move forward and not be distracted by the scandals," said Kalanick in a statement, the spokesman of Uber.
Care Kalanick, which was first reported by The New York Times, is a period of extraordinary turmoil in the company. Recently Uber was struck by an endless series of PR crises. The scandal caused by allegations that managers do not adequately consider the reports of sexual harassment, prompted former attorney General of the USA Eric holder to investigate the incident.
Care Kalanick has reinforced the crisis of leadership in Uber, which employs 14 thousand employees and more than 1 million drivers. The company did not have enough managers for operations, Finance, marketing and business.
