Uber is cutting 10 percent of its workforce.

The layoffs, which affect around 3,300 employees, comes as part of efforts to “make Uber simpler and faster,” according to a memo published by CEO Dana Khosrowshahi.

Khosrowshahi adds that Uber is removing management layers, with “the number of employees who sit 7+ layers from the CEO” reduced by 20 percent. Uber laid off 10 percent of its customer service workers in July.
