According to the audio obtained by CNBC, Uber employees asked a lot of questions or “parties” at the meeting on April 29 to the point where Uber people director Nikki Krishnamurthy, had to send a crossed “dispute” of the meeting after the report.

The recent Uber changes include adding one day to their hybrid work policy (from two days a week to three), and increasing the requirement of sabbatical election (month of paid license) of five years of tenure to eight.
“If you are here for a sabbatical and this change makes you change your mind, it is what it is,” Khosrowshahi said to employees at the meeting, by CNBC.
“Sorry for that,” he continued. “We recognize that some of the changes will be unpopular with people. This is a risk that we decided to take.”

Khosrowshahi mentioned the company’s internal message board at the beginning of the meeting, which said it was “invaded by questions.” Some noticed the lack of desktop space, a problem that has been affecting technological companies since it begged the return movement to the office. In some cases, the recoil has been so severe that competitive skills, Verizon and AT&T, for example, have used remote work policies such as leverage to hire main talents.
In response to CNBC, the company said in a statement that it was “just a surprise” that employees rejected the changes, but “leadership work is to do the best for our customs and shareholders.”
Working together in the office is better for the company, Uber told CNBC.
