Layoffs at Hero Vired

There had been a bloodbath at Hero Vired. Most of the Bengaluru office has been laid off. All this was done very suddenly. They are now hiring in New Delhi. Stay away from this company, its a pack of cards waiting to fall. They will try to hire people telling them about the hero brand name, don’t fall for it, its being run by their most incompetent family member, Akshay Munjal. Stay away and spread the word.

50% layoff at a Bangalore based health tech startup. Founder had no shame or guilt. Has raised funding recently but chose to fire people again. This is the third layoff in the last 1.5 years. Terrible management, declined variable pay. Severance is to paid in the next 4 months. Just trying to pivot the company into ‘AI’ without any plan whatsoever.

Have heard that the company is firing people left right and centre. Sales people are living quarter to quarter. BDRs are being asked to go. Growth team has dissolved. Customer success folks are being fired. COO has resigned. Jio has tightened its funding purse. Toxic culture all around! Utterly clueless company !!

As of now 10 members laid off in consumer banking division in Hyderabad.

Curious if layoffs are going to start happening in EV/mobility sectors especially after Ola last week. I’m hearing Spinny in the market is next. a friend was asked to start creating KT docs out of the blue and after he asked 4-5 folks from other teams, he found out several others had been asked to too. anyone at Spinny hearing this? what about you folks at Ather, Hero etc?

Mass layoffs at Miq Digital ! Impacted myself. Open for roles in analytics & datascience. Please help on this network.

Happened at one of the startups in Indiranagar which is into halal personal care products. Recently raised funds upwards of $50m dollars. Huge number os sales team had been asked to go.

Hi community, Recently I have been mugged by the hero vired of my hard earned INR 12k. I enrolled in one of their courses some time back paying a registration fee of 12k. As I was not super interested at the beginning, sales guys started pursuing me very hard by giving discounts/scholarships (for already overpriced courses). When I was still not getting convinced, they offered the program director and alumni connect to help me make the decision but only if I pay the registration fee which they made refundable (which was on paper non-refundable) This is an INSEAD course and the conversation was done on a recorded line so I didn't take it as a red flag, only to find out later that they have blatantly refused to refund the money. They even refused that the fee was refundable and said that there was no phone call even after I showed the proofs of the call. I had a month long discussion with them where they conducted a completely bullshit audit and their senior management (including CEO) also didn't respond on escalation. Recently, I was informed by the INSEAD panel that they have changed the management in Hero Vired and asked me to join now as I won't get a bad experience again. While I refused to join them, I thought I'll let the community know of the deep rooted culture of disservice at Hero Vired and warn you against joining their cohorts. Don't get into their FOMO sales pitches and sweet promises, they won't comply with you as soon as you pay them. I am not the first one with such experience. Check their google reviews.
