The AMA questions will be filtered toward the sustainability of the edtech sector to which the standard response will be “the sector shows no signs of decline 🤡” 
  
 I’m pretty sure controversial questions about the company will not be brought up at all.  
  
 This is most likely a branding tactic to “fix” their image.

Just curious. Are there any good engineers left in Byjus. Only people who could not get job anywhere else is remaining I suppose 😁

Aren't AMAs usually kinda staged and controlled? Especially AMAs like this?

Yes, it's a PR move to look more breedable to investors

 If Aakash wasn't part of the company, would you still be in business? 🤣🤣

Software Engineer

This isn’t happening for other teams. Only engg is it?

Brand Communication Manager

Where is this being held and for which team? I'm in engg and have received no comms regarding this. Is it possible that they are only doing it with a group of selected people with predetermined questions 😅

This was done with the media today. Not sure if the recorded video is out yet

Journalist

Too many issues surrounding the company. Think it’s pretty brave of them to agree to being slaughtered in the open.

Ask me anything about Byjus

If founders care more about customer then they don't have to bow infront of VCs.

Customer Obsession >> Funding Obsession

Byjus debacle $ 22B to $ 1B.

Senior Consultant

I hear tales about how at their peak, BYJU's used to deal with investors. 
They would not share financials. If you wanted to invest, they'd ask you to come down to office, and only for that time, see whatever you want to see. 

Investors obliged. It was the shining star of Edtech India, nobody wanted to miss out. 

Now those same investors are ousting the founder, fair enough.

But I hope enough people look back and realize they created the problem. They allowed it to exist.

BYJU's: Wasn't it always gonna happen?

Analyst

"BYJU’S grew considerably since our first investment in 2018, but, over time, its reporting and governance structures did not evolve sufficiently for a company of that scale. Despite repeated efforts from our Director, executive leadership at BYJU’S regularly disregarded advice and recommendations relating to strategic, operational, legal, and corporate governance matters. The decision for our Director to step down from the BYJU’S Board was taken after it became clear that he was unable to fulfil his fiduciary duty to serve the long-term interests of the Company and its stakeholders."

This is major - Prosus just publically said that BYJU's had improper governance and failed to improve despite their recommendations

Largest shareholder saying this publicly, I wonder if there is any way of recovering from this point

What guarantee that Byju’s survives end of the year?

Product Designer

To all the people who blindly criticize the product, I think product is good. You should look into some videos on how science concepts are explained by Byjus Team on YouTube 

ROI- Cost of Byjus is about Rs 15 a Day, or about Rs 1600 per month..( Rs80,000 course of 5 years)
Education as per UN as the highest ROI compared to any other investment.

Bring up your questions and blind criticism.
Remember if Byjus fails startup ecosystem will break down.

AMA About Byjus

Apart from unethical sales practices, toxic work culture and mindless accusations, what do you think went wring with Byju’s.

Why do you think Byju’s is falling?

Software Developer

- Byju's auditor BDO (MSKA & Associates) has resigned, citing lack of transparency and pending legal issues.
- The resignation letter highlighted inadequate support from Byju's management in providing necessary audit information.
- Byju's co-founder Byju Raveendran called the resignation a blackmail tactic, claiming compliance with all auditor requests.
- BDO requested a forensic audit after Byju's admitted insolvency in July and mentioned loss of control over some subsidiaries.
- This marks the second auditor resignation in 15 months, following Deloitte's exit last year over delayed financial statements.

Byju's Auditor Resigns Amid Transparency Concerns; Founder Alleges Blackmail

Name of company
Months left according to you
Reason

For me:

Byjus
7-8 months max
Selling tabs and doing fraud with poor parents 
In name of edtech doesn't work

Which indian startup do you believe will die soon and why do you believe it

What made it worst? The pay, the culture, or your manager?

What's the worst company you have worked for?

ICICI Bank, they had a strict sign in timing policy where if you are late to corporate office, half day salary would be cut, It would be reversed only when manager approves. The sign out time used to be 5.15pm, but you would be made to sit till 8 pm by most of the managers even if your job is done for the day. A sign out at 6 pm used to be called as half day by most of the managers. 
 I heard now they donot have this dictatorial policy.
