Cornershop

Uber, following its acquisition and integration of Cornershop, has laid off approximately 200 customer support professionals from the Cornershop team in Chile as part of a broader regional adjustment. This move, announced recently, is part of Uber's efforts to optimize operations within its Supermarkets and Retail business line. The layoffs, which are part of a larger plan affecting around 500 employees regionally, aim to streamline support services without impacting user experience. Affected employees are being offered internal transfers or severance packages. The tech and delivery industry giant continues to consolidate its operations post-acquisition.

Cornershop laid off 250 employees representing approximately 11% of its workforce on 2023-05-11.
