As it turns out, "employment at will" isn't "the end of the day". And "people on the outside" won't "stay out of it".

Because if they did, we'd still have slavery, 8-year-olds in coal mines, and women in the kitchen.

So I'll continue to make my opinion known, as a consumer no longer using Uber, as a citizen supporting laws mandating sane employment law, as a software engineer discouraging everyone from taking a job at Uber, and as an investor making sure none of his money ever ends up at Uber.

And luckily, CEOs are much further, generally, than these Randian fantasies of masculinity. They have, for example, mostly recognised that it costs them money to rely exclusively on white bros in their 30s with identical experiences.

Which of these are examples of at-will employment? Your argument is a strawman.

Here is the wikipedia article on at-will employment for your edification:

According to Uber's diversity report, the racial composition of its workforce approximately matches the racial composition of San Francisco, Santa Clara and Alemeda counties, and its gender composition is roughly in line with the industry average in the Bay Area and is really no different than the gender composition at companies like Google or Facebook.
