Damn, using AWS to spy on internal Uber communications :o

Software Engineer

Its not internal. All L6 and above in the org are aware about it.

Do you work in Uber? If not, share the blind post link.

If it turns out to be a false alarm, will the post creator cut off his dick?

If they want they can do that,35% is not a big number that can affect the app.

@Think I am sure they won’t do 35% of everyone. 35% in some teams is what i mentioned. I know about fullfillment team in india is going to be one of the impacted ones.

Uber layoffs incoming on 26th July- Grapevine

For a marketing role where i had an assisnmrnt with a lot of deliverables to complete in 2 days. On asking for feedback the recruiter told me “the person who screened assignments didn’t like your work much”. I feel absolutely garbage and am looking to feel better. Can someone tell me I just escaped a bad company or something.

Heard that Paytm is planning to layoff 10% of entire work force. Across all levels.

Heard cases that folks who were hired at market premium less than 30 days ago are now being asked to leave the organisation. 

And the layoffs will be hidden under the guise of mid year appraisals. #PaytmKaro

Layoffs coming up at Paytm

Data Scientist

I used to work in a start up in Bangalore, they overhired in 2022 and overpaid the freshers, more than the experienced engineers were getting paid.
To fix this put 30% of workforce on pip, laid off 20% I was one of them. 2 months later, they did open layoffs, did it again in 2 months, and one of my friends there heard the founders cracking a laugh that even the investors wouldn't have expected us to do this so fast.

I joined another company, they lost the client I was hired for, and few more clients, I was told they will have to do layoffs and my name is in the list. So they asked me to resign and I refused by saying we'll consider a last working day, if I get an offer I'll resign otherwise anyway I'll have to be laid off and they agreed. This happened one month after I had joined this company ( also a startup ).


So, being laid off once was already a big enough punch of reality, with an education loan on my head.
I joined another company and got laid off again. Tough shit.


I ended up getting an offer before my lwd.
I am not from any IIT, I am not an exceptional engineer. I am very bad interviews, my resume usually doesn't get shortlisted.

Sheer volume of effort I put made the impact on me getting a job.
Right now I am the best job of my career, with a better management.


Trying to say, it's a tough time. But you'll get through it.

PIP then laid off, again laid off

Can relate op I got laid off twice last year. Got trauma because of that 💀. More power to you

Flipkart may trim rolls by up to 7% in yearly refocus

Flipkart is planning to layoff 7% of its workforce

Research Engineer

A good friend of mine who was hired in Ola Electric (on campus 2022) as SDE has been put up on the performance improvement plan / PIP. 

Interesting part is that half of her team was laid off and remaining ones have been put up on PIP. Those on PIP are being asked to also pay for 3 months salary along with the joining bonus.

I don't think giving back 3 months salary and joining bonus is something she should accept? Like they're anyways ruining their career by putting them on PIP in first 10 months of their start of career?

Paytm layoffs

Product Manager

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

Layoffs Started in Goldman Sachs

Extremely sad. Labelling laid off folks as underperformers in public. Getting hired in this market would be a huge challenge for them now.

Intuit Layoffs

Cleared all the rounds and even sent the HR the documents they asked for. They also said I would have to relocate to Mumbai. However it's been more than a week and they haven't rolled out an offer letter. HR said that since they invested so heavily in IPL, they are trying to reassess their budget for this quarter, that's why it's taking so long.

Should I be worried? I have a feeling that I even if I get an offer they might try to lowball me/lay off later.

Is Upstox running out of funds?

Got an interview scheduled for a Sr. Leadership role. They have a bad reviews on Glassdoor, but their growth story & product looks promising.

As per internal company sources: This is big like 500+, lots of folks cut in platform teams, brand teams, marketing teams, business teams, product and tech. Wish everyone there all the best. This shall too pass!

Heard that more than usual PIPs are happening. Trying to push people out?

Swiggy PIPs

Product Marketing Manager

So Flipkart will be doing performance based layoffs. I have been placed on PIP. How should I proceed considering I don't have any other offers and not much experience either.

1. Resign immediately.
2. Do the PIP completely and then see if I pass or not?
I am not in a good financial position currently.

Advice

PIP on the raise at Swiggy, saw couple of post with good fellas leaving. can someone confirm or deny this fact that PIP is used a weapon to downsize the teams in order to show profit for upcoming IPO next year?
