Pyramid schemes generally require that the new entrants to the schemes are the source of capital/earnings/profit. Obviously that is not the case with Uber. Also, Uber drivers can build or consumer their own inventory.
It's a pyramid scheme in the same way franchising a Subway is. All they handle is the promotional side of things (which the franchisee pays into). You handle everything else.
