Uber Hires Expedia Exec to Fill HR Role

In a recent move, ride-hailing giant Uber has announced the hiring of Aimee Rawlings, an executive from online travel company Expedia, to fill the role of Chief People Officer. This decision comes as Uber continues to face scrutiny and criticism over its company culture and treatment of employees.

Rawlings brings with her over two decades of experience in human resources, having worked at companies such as Microsoft, Starbucks, and most recently, Expedia. She will be responsible for overseeing Uber’s global human resources operations, including talent acquisition, diversity and inclusion, compensation, and employee relations.

The appointment of Rawlings is seen as a strategic move by Uber to improve its image and address the ongoing issues within the company. With her extensive background in human resources and experience in leading cultural transformations, Rawlings is expected to play a crucial role in reshaping Uber’s workplace culture.

The Need for Change

Over the past few years, Uber has been plagued with numerous controversies, ranging from sexual harassment allegations to discrimination and toxic work environments. These issues have not only damaged the company’s reputation but have also resulted in significant financial losses and legal battles.

In 2017, a former Uber engineer wrote a scathing blog post detailing her experiences of sexual harassment and discrimination at the company.
