Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Came across tweet guy asking for frontend job to Dukaan’s CTO who fired his support and tech team just last month, and here is this guy and many others asking him for Job.

Dukaan laid off people; and people are mad about getting job

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.

Hi Folks, Can you please let me know which startsups or organisation we should not join 

Reason may be:

No Mission and Vision
Pathetic HR Policies
Burning investors money with 0 Revenue product
Random Hiring and Layoffs
Other reason you can mention
Dirty Politics
Dirty Appraisals and Promotions
If i missed anything mention in comments 

So that our geeks will not join pathetic place and save atleast current job

Do not join list

Hearing about a big scale down of Byjus offline business. Is this true?

Investor

Microsoft has lost all respect from me today. Guys please spread the word so that all come to know reality.

I am writing this post on behalf of my friend who is still in bad mood having mental trauma.

Yesterday my friend from Microsoft was let go from his job in India. He was being pressurised to write relieving letter saying he was quitting at his own will and that the HR apparently said if he didn't write the email in next half or 1 hour he won't be getting any severance or benefits by Microsoft India. 

Wait..who does this to an employee? He was so tensed yesterday that he is leaving for his hometown in few days, he doest want to do any job for some time, he was literally crying. 

He said the ones who didnt got laid off have lost the will to work. His friends who got fired are crying as it was least expected from Microsoft.

imo even amazon and sf handled the indian layoffs in a better way than Microsoft.

Other then that Microsoft peeps are not allowed to write anything rubbish on social media. You can yourself see 3 rounds of layoff have happened in India and you will rarelly see any post yet on LinkedIn.

Just imagine to what extent these firms are going to save their image. 😵‍💫🥺

msft used to have best people culture but now its something unimaginable😣

Microsoft India - Worst Situation Underway

Heard that there has been some senior management connect, where in due to financial constraints & lack of new round of funding. Some folks will be asked to leave. 
This is a complete 360 from the conversation they had in Mar’23 where in an appraisal was on the cards

Another layoff at BYJUs

Growth Manager

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

Anyone impacted by Indeed Layoffs in India?

Business Development Manager

The new head of HR who came from Infy  has been given a mandate to clean up the house and there are multiple people ( still) drawing salaries upwards of 50 Lakh to 2 Cr who have been asked to move out if they have not moved out already .

Even one of Byjus Relatives in a head role has been asked to move out

Byjus Next Round - CTO, CPO and multiple VPs and Business Heads

Apparently 1k Were made Under Performs and laied off 
Is this True ?

Intuit Layoffs

Software Developer

Just like last year, this year too...
Somehow found out about it via news. There was chatter about it over the last couple of days, but didn't think it could just happen.

It's a long weekend now and not even sure when people will be informed :/

Layoffs happening at Swiggy - 400 of us

Please pray for me to get laid off. Want to get rid of this shit. At least will get some severance this way.

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

100+ tech layoffs at Zomato just like swiggy and flipkart.

Confirmed - Massive layoffs at Cisco

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I know sometimes we refrain from saying too much about our company. But exes can usually be talked about, since there's not much holding back.

Maybe it helps someone else avoid a mistake you did, or gain a new learning :p 

Shoot.

What's a secret from a previous workplace you worked at? 🤫

Not my workplace, but true story. 
  
 giant american retail company (assume it's W*) hires one giant indian IT services company (assume it's H*) for some maintenance work now this H* company has offload this work to small Indian IT services company (assume it's M*) which has a employee named R* who's one assigned to actually do the work but R* is smartass he's scouting internet for freelancer to fix the issues. He gets one junior guy P* to work for few thousand rupees and shares his credentials, vpn provider etc and our P* now messes up , in the whole scenario there's no safety lot's of mess total grey zone. 
  
 From knowing this incident, I'm like no one gives any fucks about anything, only if people weren't so bad.

Backend Engineer

Corporate Strategist

A subsidiary of Paytm, it has been hit by a string of exits in Senior leadership in last 6 months
CFO: Amit Kapoor, gone
Head of Mutual Funds: Nisharg Golash, gone
Head of Product: Manish Reddy, gone
Head of Growth: Sourav Choraria, gone
Head of Marketing: Divya Chakravarthy, moved internally
Head of Compliance: Sudhendoo Gandhi, moved internally 

You can search these people on LinkedIn to verify.

This is a result of an increasingly toxic work culture where performers are penalized with more work while slackers make merry. This culture is driven from the top with current senior leadership who haven't left the firm have survived by the virtue of sycophancy.

Instead of firing people, they are being asked to resign so that the company is not in news.

I've personally seen this in co's rev teams, a new CTO has been hired from within Paytm. Employees are given 'negative ratings' in appraisal, which the CEO called 'an HR experiment'.

All is not well at Paytm Money

Software Project Manager

Got to hear Shell Bangalore fired employees in their all-hands meeting today. 
No details of severance yet.

Impacted roles - Data-science, backend developers, etc

Layoffs at Shell Bangalore

Founder

Trimble India is the worst at the management level. 

Layoff in March, 2024

Silent Layoff from  April, 2024 onwards

I was affected by the Silent Layoff scheme. My 80% of software development team at my location was targeted and was put on CAP (Informal PIP) or Corrective Action Plan. A month later, they targeted us with PIP. The work culture here at Trimble is the worst.
