Will Uber manage to change its toxic culture? (1/2) Scandals

Uber is a giant multinational company built on quite a controversial business model: a network of drivers who are willing to earn extra money by providing a transport service similar to taxi ride. The trust of the employees, investors and customers is now gone. The company's founder and CEO Travis Kalanick has just resigned under pressure from investors.

What happened? There were other problems, but the last straw was a former employee who complained about sexual harassment publicly in a blog post. 

Uber consequently fired 20 employees because of their harassment, discrimination and inappropriate behavior. Travis Kalanick wasn’t paying attention to mentioned issues.
