Insane offers frm ola foods!!!!

Tried ordering from ola foods, payment done, order got accepted, it's been 2hrs didn't receive the food even the restaurant is not picking up the call. There's no customer care number for ola foods. Do they expect us to mail them & then within 48 hours they will look into the matter.

- Ola is entering the $5-billion quick commerce market, competing with Blinkit, Swiggy Instamart, Zepto, and Flipkart Minute. - At its 'Sankalp' event, Ola explained its dark store concept, aiming to cut order processing time from four minutes to under one minute using automation. - The quick commerce sector has become indispensable, with rapid growth since 2021, according to UBS analysts. - Blinkit has been crucial to Zomato's growth, while Zepto is raising $1 billion, showing strong investor confidence. - Ola's Bhavish Aggarwal plans to use robots in dark stores, unlike competitors who rely on human labor.

Ordered cause it showed free delivery, they didn't deliver even after 5 hours, while from this restaurant previously order through Paytm app ondc section it was delivered. There's no update on support ticket created from ola app. If things remain like this ONDC for food would fail at scale, it's crap experience end to end. fyi I know same restaurant is on zomato/swiggy, default option less cognitive load and faster deliveries, don't know what I thought before using ondc.

I got an offer from Ola Electric for a Senior Engineering role in Backend dev. Pay is good and team looks interesting too. But I am very apprehensive about their culture. Their glassdoor reviews are horrible and the recent interview in YS Bhavish gave was cringe max. I am a hard working guy, will do solid 8-10hrs 5 days a week. But it looks like that won’t be enough. One might be made to work late nights and weekends routinely from what I heard. And Bhavish saying he doesn’t believe in weekends has made me a lot more anxious. My current company is going through financial troubles. I will definitely have to move. I will get some other role though if I wait for a few weeks. Could someone working at Ola or with recent experience advise me here.

This guy gets a lot of shit on linkedin, don’t know him personally so not sure if rightly so or not. People in Ola, how’s this whole make tech in india thing working out?

Can someone from Ola help understand the internal policy on ESOPs offering? A friend is being offered a mid leadership role as a PM but with miniscule ESOPs (12L over 4 years 😅)
