I thought leap was doing really well considering their business was foreign education based. But layoffs have become routine at this time

Product Marketing Manager

Got this information from my friends who are currently working at Leap and some who got affected. Surprisingly this has been kept very silent from everyone.

LeapScholar has laid off 5-7% across tech, product & others.   Leap is a Series D Sequioa backed startup who recently raised 75M$ last July.

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I have heard rumors that in Leap Scholar, the entire top-of-the-funnel team left because of their Manager.

Is it true?

Leap Scholar

Program Manager

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

LeapScholar who has raised a lot of funds in last 2 years, wanted to raise new round at 2.5B but the investors rejected the valuation as the revenue numbers are very less (Just 40- 50M). 

Funny part is that they told all the employees and everyone that they have already raised this funding, just have to do the Pr for it. 

No wonder, entire mid-management team at Leap has left and the upper management people left are so sub-par (look at their CoS(s)). Don’t even get me started on their founder.

Any chance of layoffs in swiggy in the technology department?

HR-Tech platform recently laid off 10% of their workforce and also announced pay cuts for the employees.

Funny how they boast about not having to layoff employees in media.

Just read an article on scams at the company. This is becoming all too common now. I'm afraid of the impact it will have on the startup ecosystem
