Uber this afternoon took to its blog — and its PR list of reporters — to let everyone know that Morgan Stanley (MS) has included Uber “in their corporate travel policy as a recommended transportation option for all employees.”
It eincludes a comment from Jeff Brodsky, Morgan Stanley’s chief HR officer, who pours it on thick: “Employees expressed their strong affinity for the convenience Uber offers them in their personal lives and wanted that flexibility for their business travel needs as well.”
Certainly it’s a bit of a coup for Uber, given that Morgan Stanley has more than 55,000 global employees.
