Gaurav Munjal is just another egomaniac with a false sense of self importance, buoyed by the likes of lousy MDs of a large venture fund. Just another dumb ass being used by these gang of VCs.
Gaurav thinks he is some messiah/genius. He is the exact opposite. Worked with him when he was starting off Flat.to, his first venture - the sheer amount of ego he had even then was surprising.
Worthless, uncouth idiot like those typical founders

Yes, totally agreed. He made false promises of job security to the entire tech team on a private zoom call 3 months ago!
There should be a award for every founder called the "moron of the year" award, on the basis of layoffs he/she should be awarded, in some kind of hall of fame website. Someone take the initiative and start making moron founder of the year. Website, with all the metrics. It could probably be a startup soon. That's the only solution for such layoffs and possible new startup.
Gaurav will probably win all the awards. Roman will start another company so as to fuck up even at a bigger scale, win the award and make videos on youtube how to win moron of the year award. hey guyyssssssssssss

It shows every startup just hires so many people and they were never really profitable. Why work in a start up then?
Because kunal shah thinks we indians don’t know our hourly rate and shamami , warikoo and all the youtuber clowns push content that teaches unsuspecting youngsters startups are the answer to your life’s problems

I think they are going to shut down the company. No other way out. Far from profitability in this lifetime 😅

Gaurav Munjal is losing his Gaurav
What do they do after taking "full responsibility" ? Any bias for action or attention to detail in these words ?
The subject should be- “Heyy I fked up. I lied to you all just a few weeks back. You can curse me all you want but here is the Bad News…”
“Oh noooo
Anyway”
“Also PS. Dinner at Taj and vacation for exec staff for this hard work”

I am thinking how does taking responsibility makes anyone feel better about this? Words, mere words! Layoffs are hard for some people, in some cases the entire family might be dependent on this one person working with unacademy. Funny how employees are reduced to mere puppets in the hands of these people..hire recklessly and then later on fire recklessly 🤣
It's time we chose our idols wisely!
Major layoffs were in the engineering and product department. Seems like more than 50% of the entire engineering team is laid off. FML.

70% to be precise, no concept of teams or managers going forward. They cut all the employees earning higher salaries.
