oh geez...if only you knew why the new COO from Uber was fired you would not be promoting this company that clearly did not do a reference check.

can you elaborate?
his comment is #2 on google when searching 'uber coo fired' and its only been 20min. so 2 takeaways:

1. google is damn impressive

2. he is probably just trying to stir shit

Don't you hate it when you Google for an answer to your problem, find a promising StackExchange post, and it's your question you asked a few days ago and there are still no answers?
Obligatory xkcd: https://xkcd.com/979/
I can't find it on google so it must be false...

This person is talking about an ex uber employee who was hired as COO at hopskipdrive.

The terms of his "resignation" were confidential, because the truth is pretty embarassing for the company and could damage its image as a safe family company.

None of this really matters though, the whole company is just an uber feature.

1. 99.9% of tech workers in SF have 1 degree of separation from an Uber employee or is one. 2. any one of those people would tell you the same thing.
