Blaming this all on ideology is too easy an explanation.

There have been multiple reports by various uber employees (as well as 2 investors according to the OP) of a rotten culture. Add to that the leaks of taking huge losses, and people are seeing a company that isn't profitable and has some disastrous PR.

It doesn't help that the way they approach regulation, and the way they allegedly treat workers match up pretty well. They take an aggressive stance with both.

The narrative here is that a company that was once thought to be great is now showing some significant cracks.

They have also been around long enough that everyone in the industry knows someone who said "great product, shitty place to work", or something to that effect. We all knew there was _something_ a bit off, but didn't have a public, large-scale narrative to get behind.
