In five years Uber has cut driver compensation from the company by 50%. The latest iteration includes customer tips as part of the Uber compensation. If the customer does not tip or states a tip then reduces or eliminates it, the driver can end up completing a trip at less than minimum wage. Uber has also eliminated the details of the trip payments. Where we once knew the individual values of the pickup, the drop off, the miles and the minutes, it is now reported as one number, leaving drivers no tools to dispute the payment. Now the SEC wants to enable Uber to further cheat the drivers by adding in stock payments where we do not know the value of the stock nor when we can sell the stock nor if the value at the time of sale will be the equivalent of the value at the time of vesting. Whoever came up with this scheme is in Uber's pocket and should be fired for suggesting another way to cheat independent contractors.
