 Layoff was massive, 30%+ 
 Leadership did an org wide call announcing it first 
 Informed impacted folks on email and 1-1s with Dirs/EMs 
 Leadership did townhall QnA in the evening with everyone

Internal all hands happened. Plus 1 on 1s with non impacted folks too.

Software Engineer

I meant the head of departments. From what I know, they are off for a week.

Business Analyst

Product Manager

Founder

They’re one of the companies I really admire. They hire too level staff as well. Good luck to folks at Dunzo who got laid off. Super skilled folks. Specially the design team ✌️

Product Marketing Manager

Business Development Manager

Cowards. Leadership only for chest thumping in good times.

And just got a notification saying dunzo secured $75M through convertible notes and all.

Yeah. Although ofc convertible note is like debt.  
  
 So it's not "free VC money" which they can spend willy nilly. It's definitely a sign that they need to get conservative.

Real Estate

Growth Manager

These dunzo founders, especially kabeer is arrogant af. Hires for less, then in 6 months fires the highly paid employees. Worst culture ever.   
    
 The founders would have bought a couple of more properties around indiranagar this week too. Layoffs won't affect the buying process

i think COVID over hiring is one of those reason

Software Developer

Analyst

Dunzo stopped service in posh IT areas of Hyderabad (i.e. with good customer base) for the last 1 week. Something is wrong in general

Data Scientist

dunzo laid off ~20-25% of it's workforce today, calling it that they overhired, pretty pre-planned.
And coincidentally some dept. heads are on leave for the next few days, unavailable to answer their team.
I wonder why these people even take up the leadership roles if they can't step forward to answer.

Dunzo massive layoff

Ex-Dunzo employee. AMA.

About 8-10% from my team have been impacted.

Layoff at Dunzo

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

First, they had a layoff.
Some people in the leadership quit.
Middle management people are quitting.
They shut down majority of the dark stores.
They are pivoting their business.
They are out of runway.

Dunzo not in a great position

Dunzo joins the bandwagon of layoffs 😔

Fresh layoffs at Dunzo

Marketing Manager

Layoffs are happening at Sharechat starting today.
Each division is being asked to join a call and they are being announced.
First call with product org - around 50 folks were impacted

Layoffs at Sharechat.

They moved to a new massive swanky Office 3 months ago. Team parities were happening even last week. And they do this in last week of the year spoiling the new year plans of hundreds of folks!

Channel Sales

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Week back there were posts by linkedin engineers that linkedin is hiring SDEs and anyone can as referral and today they laid off 700 people.

Like whats happening man!!! Is the company dumb or what?

LinkedIn Layoffs India

(1) Reduce cost of human capital -> (2) Post better EBITDA numbers in earnings calls -> (3) Get big bonuses and sell your equity if its value is rising -> (4) Hire a lot of people again so that you can repeat this cycle again to profit

Dunzo caps salary at 75000 per month. Any thoughts?

Dunzo in serious trouble

Housing.com (REA India) ranked 3rd in the GPTW survey this year. They provide several awesome perks like, laying off without any notice, fucking their reviews just so that they could justify the lay offs, and threatening actions if anything came out on social media. 

10-15% of the whole tech team was laid off (mostly freshers) apparently on the basis of low performance.  It was all carried out by the higher management, not even the managers had any clue about the lay off happening. 

The performance rating was rigged by the higher management who had no interaction with the tech people. They had this awesome idea of getting reviewed by people who we had never interacted with. Managers were merely bystanders who had no say in the performance review whatsoever. 


PS: A note for the management -->
Housing.com would be an employee friendly company only if you guys would give two fucks about employees, instead of Caring so much about the GPTW ranking like conducting hands on sessions and literally forcing people to put in good rating.

Mass Lay-offs at housing.com (REA India)

The rigged performance rating and the secrecy is so true. I got to know about my colleague getting fired when I opened his slack which was deactivated. Upon calling, he said it was all done in 5 mins, Forceful resignation, No Severance and was asked to post nothing on social media.  
  
 From my team alone 2 people have been laid off both freshers.

I was working with Dun and Bradstreet here in Hyderabad. Called yesterday to my workplace, and was told that I was being let go due to some restructuring. In plain terms you are fired. Once again handled really poorly, no advance notice nothing. Was not even prepared for it. Layoffs are inevitable but the least companies can do is to handle it better. They just don't understand that this only gives em negative image or maybe they don't care.

Dun and Bradstreet layoffs in Hyderabad

Boys and girls, Simpl is laying heavy this week. Stay tuned for my rant post in some days

Also Dm if you can refer for sde jobs, thanks

Simpl Layoffs

Bruh they were hiring last week. DM me for referrals at Angel One. (Fully remote for SDEs)

Rumor mill is fired up since a week and all meetings with senior leadership this week have been removed from calendars without any notice! Also noticed that several leaders are WFH today. Guessing that is to avoid nervous conversations and to engage in private meetings over phone calls to decide which heads they are going to chop off. 
The 🔔are going off! Prepare yourselves!
