They have little faith that the investigation will be truly independent. Arianna Huffington's on the board, Chief Human Resources Officer Liane Hornsey reports directly to CEO Travis Kalanick, and former attorney general Eric Holder was once a paid lobbyist for Uber.
"We are disappointed to see that Uber has selected a team of insiders to investigate its destructive culture and make recommendations for change. To us, this decision is yet another example of Uber’s continued unwillingness to be open, transparent, and direct," they write.
Noting that investors rarely publicly criticize executives at high-profile companies, the Kapors criticize what they described as "toxic patterns" of "responding to public exposure of bad behavior by holding an all-hands meeting, apologizing and vowing to change, only to quickly return to aggressive business as usual."
"Uber’s outsize success in terms of growth of market share, revenues and valuation are impressive, but can never excuse a culture plagued by disrespect, exclusionary cliques, lack of diversity, and tolerance for bullying and harassment of every form," they write.
The two are not the first to raise doubts about Uber's investigation, but they are the first investors to publicly criticize the company after Susan Fowler Rigetti (who goes by Susan J. Fowler on her blog) revealed horrendous management and HR practices.

"We will leave no stone unturned in our work and all voices will be heard. We will be thorough, impartial and objective, and we are conducting this review with the highest degree of integrity and professionalism.”
