Another layoff at BYJUs

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

First the audit report got delayed. Now they’ve reported a loss of over 4.5k cr. And I believe they’re like a mothership of edtech, if they gone down then the entire category goes down from an investment perspective

What’s happening with byjus?

Rumors from the grapevine - Byjus has laid off a lot of people in the tech team. A person i know who works there mentioned 7 out of 10 people in his team were laid off.

Another layoffs at Byjus in Tech

Founder

Internal source: most vps are around the table these days, and too busy to get goats to sack this week.  For Byju's product team, this week is crucial, usual results are out on Friday. ( product, design and media)  45% -50% cut from each team. 

There won’t be any news about Byjus from now on, my wife was the source, and she got laid off today.

Byju’s list is ready for more layoffs .

Senior Product Designer

First, they had a layoff.

Not able to raise funding till now even though trying since December 
Sales is down 90%

 What a fucking high IQ C suite the company has🤣 piece of shits, thats why never work for Indian companies. No morals

AI Engineer

Many VPs, Business heads are moving out so quickly mergers of departments and closure of some departments. Scary !!!

BYJUs Top level erosion

Marketing Manager

Byju in his townhall yesterday oversold future and more people will be laid off today. 

It is funny because so many business folks who are adding zero value and doing nothing for years are still there 

Senior engineering leaders who are earning salaries of 2 Cr+ are also still there . Poor low level minions are facing all the brunt

150+ Engineers to be laid off from Byjus Today ( Round 4)

This gets the figure to like 10k in that many months 🫣

BYJU'S set to fire another 4,000 employees

Paying exorbitant salaries was going to bite them sooner or later, feel sad for those who will loose their jobs. But again have come across ppl who were paid insanely and were laid off not wanting to take a pay cut and join somewhere, infact they will ask more than what was their inflated last drawn salary. Not willing to realise the harsh reality of the current situation.

Computer Operator

Any Goss on the financial health of Edtech firms like LEAD, Unacademy?
I hear there's one more round of layoffs coming.

Situation with Edtech firms.

Byjus layoffs

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Another round of firing if
$350-500m doesn't hit Byju's bank account by March end
In all probability, it will hit. They're going for a down round. Reduced valuation.

Byju's layoffs

Will these cash burning companies just continue raising money and biding time or will they implode soon?
Not well informed on this, genuinely want to know how this works
And what happens to their 1000s of employees

What will happen to BYJUs/Sharechat type companies?
