Uber and its main competitor Lyft are competing aggressively to attract more drivers and in turn limit the access of their competitors in the drivers’ supply base. To control the supply side, it is important to analyze the ride-sharing platforms from drivers’ perspective. Using Uber and Lyft drivers’ online reviews, it is shown that drivers are slightly rating Uber higher than Lyft. Additionally, comparing Uber and Lyft rating trend over time, the analysis shows that they are closely competing to attract more drivers. On the aggregate level, drivers count job flexibility, work/life balance, and meeting new people as the main advantages of working in the ride-sharing platforms. On the other hand, the results show that drivers suffer from insufficient compensation of their op-erating costs, poor job security, experiencing bad riders’ behavior, and poor customer service.

The study investigates different factors influencing people to have more stress in a hydropower unit located in city of Esfahan, Iran. Since there were only 81 people working for customer service section of this company and the proposed study tries to focus only on this part of the firm we have decided to distribute questionnaires among all of them.

In the second part of the survey, there are 66 questions, which include all the important factors influencing employees & apos; stress.

The results of our ANOVA tests shows that among different factors, difficulty of working condition as well as work pressure are two most important factors increasing stress among employees. The other findings indicate that there is not a significant difference on work stress among different groups of employees in terms of their job title, educational level, employment type and gender (P & GT; 0.05). The other finding indicates that there is a meaningful difference between different groups of people with various ages, marital status and job experience (P & GT; 0.05).

One of the necessary actions in many organizations is to reduce the number of workers in an attempt to restructure business activities.

The results indicate that a good supportive program including wage increase, family support, health care plans, etc. could significantly improve employee long-term commitments and it leads to job satisfaction.
