I was previously involved with the Scenes team. Full of frauds and stupid people exploiting interns and leaders who have no vision and jump ship at the earliest inconvenience.

Looks a scammy company from the outset + the platform itself is far too basic. Never understood the hype except for their early Discord server

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

That shitshow of a company called Unacademy is in tatters, Byju’s is being chased by lenders globally and these fkers have the audacity to do acquisitions????

Unacademy continues to lay off more people every month! HOW TF IS ONE OF THEIR COMPANIES SPENDING MONEY ON ACQUISITION????

What a shit show.

Graphy just bought Scenes???

Graphy just bought Scenes???- Grapevine

Rumours are floating that Unacademy is getting sold by one of its main investors to another Edtech company in their portfolio for just 400 Million dollars, their last round valuation was 3.5 Billion dollars

But founder Gaurav Munjal said they have 200 Million in the bank. Getting confused - Is this a repeat of Byju 2.0?

They have fired the CTO and co-founder Hemesh Singh and Roman Saini ( other co-founder) is also not seen anywhere

I am worried if more people are to be laid off?

Unacademy getting acquired?

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Unacademy has gone bonkers 💩

I don't understand, the sector that makes sureshot money on small and medium scale is continuously failing on pan India scale.

A small IIT coaching in Patna with 2 centres generates profit in crores but these Byjus and Unacademy are not really able to do anything significant in long run.

Unacademy is up for sale

Founding Engineer

Fresh round of layoffs in Unacademy and 250 people have been let go. 

Kept waffling about he’s going to revolutionize the Edutech space and how they’re different from Byju’s. They’re all the same.

Another round of layoffs in Unacademy

Product Owner

Unacademy is up for sale!

So again Unacademy has asked people to leave, and asked them to resign.

Leadership is so clueless about what they are doing, they fired 3-4 people whom they had hired a month ago. Imagine the situation 😂

And I don't see this stopping at Unacademy anytime soon

They are aching left, right and centre. Still some people are making advt videos with Sachin.

And the nalla has time to tweet and enjoy vacation, I pity the investors who funded them.

100th Layoff round at Unacademy

Though in all probability, what you've already heard is true.

I've worked with the CEO/COO at Unacademy. AMA.

Hey all. My first post here. Can anyone tell me what the work culture is like at Unacademy and Upgrad. Currently in another ed-tech firm and looking for a shift.

Work Culture

Operations Manager

Just read in the news that they had another round of layoffs today of 10% of the workforce, 

What’s going on there?!

The layoffs would happen across verticals, some of which would also be shut or scaled down, Munjal told employees in an internal email, a copy of which was seen by Moneycontrol. 

Unacademy lays off 10% of workforce as funding winter for edtech worsens

A lot of noise inside unacademy around this news.

Apparently Gaurav will move aside and let Mrinal Step in and take over as CEO role to help Unacademy grow. This has been confirmed by senior folks from the Unacademy CEO's office team. 

Edtech space is truly getting hot with each passing day. Official announcement later this week.

Mrinal Mohit joining Unacademy as CEO

Concept is to fire all employees, earn no revenue and give gyaan on Twitter

Unacademy is Uncompany now

Unacademy HR Head steps down after a 5 year stint. Today was her last day. There are too many stories around her abrupt exit from the organisation﻿.

Next in line : COO, VP Engineering, CBO

Unacademy house of cards finally falling down 🤡

After fooling countless customers, investors, loan partners, byjus employees are now all set to destroy what little is left to Unacademy.
Unacademy is now frantically hiring people from BYJUs across all levels and verticals. With BYJUs employees employment stood on the base of false promises and unethical sales, it is just a matter of time, Unacademy will become the new BYJUs.

With the company’s product first approach and the apprehension towards aggressive selling, it is disheartening to see the new fondness towards BYJUs.
