Munjal has got all of it right here!

Hi folks, I got laid off today from a YC-backed startup (W23) citing a shift in product focus. Was part of the core team since Oct '21, initially as an intern then later converted to FTE in '22. Got a decent (30%+) increment this year. I was leading the mobile platform but currently, I'm on a notice period. CTO is supportive and helping me via their network. I'm a recent graduate and this is my first time experiencing a layoff. What should I do now? What things should I keep in mind looking for the next opportunity? Also, if you are hiring and looking for a full-stack engineer, do reach out via https://t.me/GrimBeard75

What is with these loss making startup founders who give bucketloads of gyaan despite their ventures making losses galore. Gaurav of Unacademy wrote a thread and nitpicked on Byju’s yet everyone is aware of the ground reality of operations at Unacademy.

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

Another consumer tech startup bites the dust :/ https://entrackr.com/2023/10/ex-myntra-ceos-startup-virgio-shuts-down-after-raising-37-mn/
