I wonder how much drivers lost in 2018 with crappy short rides, long trips with deadhead miles, lower rates etc.

    If Uber lost 1.8 Billion.  There Drivers  List 2.69 Billion. Uber has been cheating it’s drivers really bad since last year. This year even more. I’m making 51.9%  Uber keeps tacking on fees and lowering my % rate every month.

    (It’s a loss of $1.8 billion. Not $18B.)

    It’s an improvement from the previous $2.2B! Things are looking up!!

    Sorry, with what they collect, I find it very hard to believe.   Perhaps they need to be split up.  I mean, what divisions are they experiencing billion dollar losses.

      I agree they have to be making billions. Problem is they are probably spending it as fast as they make it. Self driving cars, Uber air transport (Uber airplane - ride sharing). Dont forget Dara's salary and all the lawsuits:)

      Can’t wait to see the derails of the finances. Yes, their total revenue (before expenses) is definitely billions. 

      UberFlight, baby.
