Uber's Mission

Uber's Mission

We reimagine the way the world moves for the better

We are Uber. The go-getters. The kind of people who are relentless about our mission to help people go anywhere and get anything and earn their way. Movement is what we power. It's our lifeblood. It runs through our veins. It's what gets us out of bed each morning. It pushes us to constantly reimagine how we can move better. For you. For all the places you want to go. For all the things you want to get. For all the ways you want to earn. Across the entire world. In real time. At the incredible speed of now.

Our Values

Our values reflect who we are and where we are going. They guide our decision-making, unite and define our culture, and tell a story to the world about Uber's corporate purpose.

Do the right thing

Period.

Go get it

Bring the mindset of a champion.

Our ambition is what drives us to achieve our mission. How we define a champion mindset isn't based on how we perform on our best days, it's how we respond on our worst days. We hustle, embrace the grind, overcome adversity, and play to win for the people we serve. Because it matters.

Trip obsessed

Make magic in the marketplace.

The trip is where the marketplace comes to life. The earner, rider, eater, courier, and merchant are the people who connect in our marketplace - and we see every side. This requires judgment to make difficult trade-offs, blending algorithms with human ingenuity, and the ability to create simplicity from complexity. When we get the balance right for everyone, Uber magic happens.

Build with heart

We care.

We work at Uber because our products profoundly affect lives and we care deeply about our impact. Putting ourselves in the shoes of people who connect in our marketplace helps us build better products that positively impact our communities and partners. Our care drives us to perfect our craft.

Stand for safety

Safety never stops.

We embed safety into everything we do. Our relentless pursuit to make Uber safer for everyone using our platform will continue to make us the industry leader for safety. We know the work of safety never stops, yet we can and will challenge ourselves to always be better for the communities we serve.

See the forest and the trees

Know the details that matter.

Building for the intersection of the physical and digital worlds at global scale requires seeing the big picture and the details. Knowing the important details can change the approach, and small improvements can compound into enormous impact over time.

One Uber

Bet on something bigger.

It's powerful to be a part of something bigger than any one of us, or any one team. That's why we work together to do what's best for Uber, not the individual or team. We actively support our teammates, and they support us - especially when we hit the inevitable bumps in the road. We say what we mean, disagree and commit, and celebrate our progress, together.

Great minds don't think alike

Diversity makes us stronger.

We seek out diversity. Diversity of ideas. Identity. Ethnicity. Experience. Education. The more diverse we become, the more we can adapt and ultimately achieve our mission. When we reflect the incredible diversity of the people who connect on our platform, we make better decisions that benefit the world.

Letter from the Chairperson of the Board

Letter from the Chairperson of the Board

Dear Stockholders,

On behalf of our entire Board, we thank you for your continued support of Uber. 2023 was a standout year for Uber, with healthy growth across metrics such as Gross Bookings, Trips, and monthly active platform consumers, achieving record profits while supporting Drivers and Couriers, who earned nearly $62 billion on our platform during the year. We grew our Gross Bookings by 20% to $137.9 billion1 and had $1.9 billion in net income and $4.1 billion in Adjusted EBITDA. We reached our full-year GAAP operating profitability milestone and gained entry into the S&P 500 sooner than anticipated.

We continued to make strong progress in the regulatory environment. We affirmed Driver independence in the U.S. through legislation in three states, and we signed the first-ever sectoral collective bargaining agreements in France for Drivers and Couriers. We entered into a landmark, first-of-its-kind agreement with the New York Attorney General ensuring flexibility and important new benefits for Drivers across New York State.

We continued to engage with our stockholders and improve Uber's perception in the market, with strong support from large and high-quality institutions throughout 2023.

In 2023, we published a combined Environmental, Social, and Governance report and People and Culture report, as well as a Civil Rights Assessment. The Board continues to monitor our progress in these areas.

This year we managed our Chief Financial Officer transition smoothly, welcoming Prashanth Mahendra-Rajah while saying goodbye to Nelson Chai. We thank Nelson for his leadership through our transformation to a profitable public company. In addition, we added a new independent director this year, Turqi Alnowaiser, and we look forward to drawing on his tremendous global financial and operational experience.

2023 was an inflection point for Uber, as we continue to generate profitable growth at scale. We are using our momentum, and especially our ability to build with heart, to accelerate our growth. Our Board recently authorized the repurchase of $7 billion of the Company's common stock, a vote of confidence in the Company's strong financial momentum. Thank you for your investment as an Uber stockholder and your continued support. We look forward to your partnership on this journey together.

Sincerely,

Ronald Sugar

Independent Chairperson of the Board of Directors
