Layoff history

Drizly cut 168 employees (100% of staff)
168 laid off 100% of workforce Location Boston

Uber's alcohol-delivery subsidiary Drizly notified Massachusetts officials in early February 2024 that it would lay off all 168 of its Boston-based employees, with terminations rolling through August 2024. The cuts represent the entire workforce of a company Uber purchased for $1.1 billion in 2021, as Uber decided to shut Drizly down entirely by the end of March 2024 rather than continue integrating it. Drizly had grown fast during the pandemic but struggled to justify its scale once COVID-driven demand faded. About 100 employees had already been cut during the initial post-acquisition integration in March 2023. Uber told customers to switch to its Uber Eats platform for alcohol delivery going forward.
