There is a 3-month cooling period between these firms. Once you leave Paytm or phonepe, the company cannot hire directly. You have to wait for 3 months and then only join the firm which can be Paytm or phonepe

😂 cooling periods are a joke, nobody cares and barely anyone adheres

Product Manager

Doesn't works like that way... Phonepe cannot stop you. Non-compete are as useless as prenups in India, because they stop you from "Right to work" which is a fundamental right. Many lawyers on YouTube have given detailed video on this. You just don't need to use the information of your previous employer and you are good.

Strategy & Operations

Poaching of employees in tech companies is a common occurrence as it allows them to quickly acquire skilled workers and gain a competitive edge. It can also offer employees new opportunities for career growth, higher salaries, and better benefits. 
  
 However, poaching can also lead to a talent war between companies, driving up salaries and causing instability in the job market.

True but it's likely the poaching method is the brand name and not monetary.
