Took a 20 minute Uber today, cost me $19.89. Driver took home a little over $5. 

Uber's take is 75% - that seems surprisingly high. I would have expected a split closer to 50-50.

It's definitely surprising how much of the fare goes to Uber compared to the drivers. It's a tough situation because drivers are doing the heavy lifting and yet they see so little of the earnings. If we're paying that much for a ride, we should hope the drivers are fairly compensated for their hard work.
