Agreed this might be the trick author used for creating confusion 😣

The claim seems exaggerated. Turning 400 employees into millionaires after an acquisition is highly unlikely, especially given the financial constraints and discontent mentioned.

This mentions that all 400 employees were turned into millionaires after the acquisition 😇

Mojocare laysoff their entire staff of around 200+ people

That's some crazy shit, the CEO reached out to me 3-4 months back on LinkedIn for a Managerial position. Glad that I rejected it.

Customer Success

Founder

It’s hard time for the community with these kind of asshole founders enjoying limelight with articles and media sitting quiet on this. 
They have fired almost everyone with their crooked and cruel strategy. 
Lame founders who micro manage and build strategies to fire people. They have a layer of puppets under them and make the whole plan to fire the employees- bhai itna mehnat kyu karte ho yaar, seedha muh pe bol do. 
They’re burning investor money and despite being productive laying these foundations for firing. Layoff everyone then, those puppets desite taking tons of bad decisions are being protected just because they lick their ass and pound them to be rockstars. 
They’ve hired hot girls under them for timepass and so called secret parties. Complete BS. 

I’m still surprised itna karne ke bad they are being celebrated what a country we live in.

So stable money is just another fintech platform where basically you can do FD from various banks and corporates.

This concept isn't new, other apps and websites offer the same as well.

Weirdly, everyone is posting about it on LinkedIn & Twitter. I can see that stable money is giving merch to them but are these people getting merch just to post a positive review? Anyone has insider news?

Why everyone is posting about "Stable Money" ?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Am seeing multiple posts praising the company being promoted by Intuit everyday on LinkedIn. Is this a PR thing or are they on a hiring spree?

Also, how's their culture really? Have heard good things, but I wanna hear the not-so-good things because no place is paradise.

Intuit posts on LinkedIn

LinkedIn laid off 668 employees

The company had more than 6 layoffs in the past  10 months. Right from office boys to the company COO was affected by the layoff. The recent layoff happened 10 days back, where the company didn't pay their employees a single dime and instead gave them their value less esops to keep their mouth shut. The company is being run by 2 arrogant adamant co-founders along with their 10 other close ally so called the CORE team. The employees were on 30% salary cut since 10 months in the name of deffered and were promised that everyone would get it back with 8% interest on the cut. In every layoff employees were asked to leave within a day or two without even paying them for their notice period. Nobody was vocal about it as the founders had threatened some ex employees that they would make their life miserable and they will find it difficult to get jobs anywhere in future.

The dirty game of Dukaan's layoffs

If we actually think about it, this is even worse than Byju’s. No severance, long-standing pay cuts, and direct/indirect threats.  
 Dukaan deserves to die.

Operations Manager

What changed for you post acquisition and how did it change your lives

Context: worked at a small startup getting acquired soon by a publicly listed company

Anyone who worked at a startup then got acquired by a big company?

I was working in a startup, but I left only after a couple of years. 😅 That startup got acquired by a big company some years after I left.  
  
 My co-workers who stayed till the acquisition, their life changed in two ways at acquisition: 
  
 1. Each of them got USD $1 million cash in exchange for the e-sops / equity they owned  
  
 2. On acquisition, their salaries immediately got doubled by the acquiring company, in line with the company's salary bands 
  
 So there, that's how lives change on acquisition. 😄

Welcome to Confessions's Private Community

Welcome to NEW LinkedIn, where professionals go to get distracted
- Because nothing says "professional networking" like knowing that out of my 30K connections, 48 have played Queens in the last hour. Exactly the vital information I needed today. And it's so comforting to know my boss not only sucks at setting my KPIs but also sucks at LUDO (oh wait.. they dont have LUDO, but you get the point). Say Yes to LinkedIn Games : because what better way to showcase your professional skills than competing in virtual board games. Maybe next we’ll have a LinkedIn Queens Champion title to boost your profile visibility and job hunt next?
- AI Post Ideas – Original thoughts? Nah, let the algorithm tell me what to think. Can’t wait for the ‘Inspirational Monday Motivation’ template. Because originality is overrated, right?
- LinkedIn Shorts – because TikTok isn’t enough. Now I can document getting laid off in 30-second clips. ‘Watch me scream at my boss in high definition!’ And the best part? When the boss yells at an employee, we can record that too! Coming soon: "Live from the pantry" and "Breakout room drama" LiEmploymentTV is the new reality TV 

What are the new features in pipe: Kundli and Tarot? 
- LinkedIn Horoscopes: Today’s forecast: Your connection requests will be ignored. Better luck tomorrow!
- LinkedIn Tarot Readings: The cards say stop pretending to enjoy team-building exercises
- LinkedIn Karaoke: Here's a hip hop base track to sing your resignation letter
- LinkedIn Pet Profiles: Cause your cat deserves a professional network too
- LinkedIn Cooking Shows: Cause you are more than your current role
- LinkedIn Meditation Sessions: Your mind needs it own Calm
- LinkedIn Matchmaking: We solved for the jobs, now lets help you find love with someone equally networked

Meta shutting down workplace really dint teach you anything???
To the PMs at LinkedIn – Thanks for teaching us - What not to do when and how.

Remember when LinkedIn was the place to get work done?

LinkedIn is not the same what it was an year ago, these days it's mostly filled with useless crap and so called influencers sharing their fake interview experiences just to sponsor someone who paid good amount of money

Ranting. Just read a post about how a super-human struggled with the interviews and finally got an offer from Bigtech.  That super-human wrote a whole damn essay on it and received 30000 likes.  

I knew it would upset me if I read the whole thing but they did it anyway. Now, I’m depressed.  I have removed all 14 of my connections who liked and commented on this post. Any other workaround to cure my depression?

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Heard on Twitter that social media app ShareChat is going BUST.

- At ~$42m revenue, it's valued at 120x rev
- ~95m DAU in rural India
- Founders cashed out $10m in secondaries. 

Is this true?

Opportunities are so much more then when I stared. We never flaunted getting a job into a Top company even when options were fewer. What is the need to give average gyan on linkedin for getting a job offer. Open question to Gen Z why are you so desperate for social validation?

If he gives me ESOPs worth the CEO's shares then sure I would have an entrepreneurial mindset.

Consultant

Hey folks!

🌐 Joined X out of necessity. KT for 1-2 days, then POC and client tickets.

🔒 Credentials revoked, told client issues. New guy in team, no intro, he got my creds.

📊 Reporting shifted to HR, no work assigned, sensed possible layoff.

🚫 No communication, red flag, forced office visit despite injury.

💰 Salary received, PF deducted, no passbook data, doubtful deposit.

🔄 Y offered better opportunity, hid X on resume, got and accepted offer.

❓ Should I have told Y about X? Concerned:
1. Tell now, they may understand or revoke.
2. Keep quiet, can they find out later via background check?

🤷‍♂️ Policies differ, but it's about people, not policies—understand or do shit.

LinkedIn: X-> 300-400, Y -> ~4000 (layoffs recently, so numbers might decrease).
