Quite curious how Uber is going strong and hiring aggressively

“A year ago, a friend at Uber got an offer from Meta & asked my take. I told them I can't predict the future but:

• Uber has lower margins and barely makes a profit
• Meta has higher margins, and huge profits

Therefore Meta is likely a safer bet, job security-wise.

I was wrong.” - Gergely Orosz

Anyone inside Uber knows what is it that is keeping Uber going strong ?
