Uber has hit a wall in its search for a chief financial officer as VMware Inc.'s Zane Rowe reportedly turned down the job, per the Wall Street Journal.
Why it matters: Uber hasn't had a CFO since Brent Callinicos left in 2015, and the company needs a finance chief to shepherd its initial public offering, planned for 2019.
