Tough going: Uber has faced headwinds since its app went online in Denmark in November 2014. — Reuters

Uber Technologies Inc released its first diversity report on March 28, showing that women and non-white employees are underrepresented at the ride-services company – just as they are at many other technology firms.

Uber released the information after a series of revelations about its culture and business tactics that have incited calls for consumers to boycott the company and changes in senior management. A former employee last month recounted a workplace of sexual harassment and cut-throat competition, prompting Uber to launch an internal investigation.
