About
Uber is laying off 168 employees in Boston this year as it prepares to shut down Drizly, the alcohol delivery service it acquired in 2021 for $1.1 billion. The layoffs, notified to the state last week, will begin in April and continue through August, following Drizly's announcement last month that it will slowly cease operations by the end of March. This move comes after Drizly, founded in 2012 and based in Boston, already laid off about 100 employees in March 2023 during its merger with Uber. The closure reflects Uber's strategy to consolidate its delivery services, redirecting Drizly customers to Uber Eats instead. The layoffs are part of the broader wind-down of Drizly, which saw a sales surge during the COVID-19 pandemic but is now being integrated into Uber's larger operations.
