Uber CEO Travis Kalanick in February apologized after video emerged of him arguing with an Uber driver. That same month, a former engineer wrote a blog post describing experiences with sexual harassment during her time at the company. Kalanick also came under fire for a brief tenure on President Trump’s business advisory council.
