Permanent till April 2024 🤣🤣🤣🤣 
  
 Someone please inform the oxford dictionary to revise the definition of the word “permanent”

Software Engineer

Upto 25%..... While the employee loses 100%

Founder

Aaj layoff karna tha is liye ye drama. Company se free bmw, private jet aur bungalow le rakha hai bhai logon ne fir salary ka karna hai kya hai 😂

Product Marketing Manager

Heard that he hires private jet from time to time for leisure travel

Data Scientist

What does permanent but till Apr 2024 mean? Salary cuts, stagnation and all that wont help contain the burn as much as paying customers do! Surprised that they raised so much money, yet landed in a bad shithole

UX/UI Designer

Lol that guy gets paid 5cr annually. VCs shouldn't allow such high salaries till companies are profitable

Product Manager

Kitna salary tha bhai pehle..30%+10%+25% back to back cut ke baad log chor nahi rahe company rofl

Unacademy news

Principal Engineer

The negativity brigade is out in full force against Unacademy lately. Honestly watching this relentless media agenda against us is like watching a bad tv show. As someone who's part of the team, I want to set the record straight.

First off, Gaurav Munjal is the smartest, visionary entrepreneur in the country. He's basically a genius. Like a legend, truly amazing! My observation is that people who are throwing a shade have never built a startup themselves or have never led anything more complex than a lemonade stand. They are simply jealous of Gaurav's awesome success. Meanwhile, legends like Bhavish and BeerBiceps are cheering Gaurav on. Coincidence? I think not!

Oh and layoffs! Every company does it – it's just business 101. Times are tough - stop whining and smell the coffee. This isn't a reason to target Gaurav. I see a lot of snowflake work-lifers who only want to work from 9 to 9 for 5 days. We did indulge you, didn't we? If you really don't want to be "laid off", what is stopping you from doing great work? Even better - why don't you start your own company and keep this stupid to 9-9-5 policy and "not lay off" these work-lifers who are a burden on your company?

Let's focus on constructive support and recognize the efforts of those truly making a difference.

Unacademy: Setting the record straight

Corporate Strategist

Unacademy's COO has stepped down from his position today and will serve a notice period for the next 3 months. 


Adding to this, Top Educators and directors have resigned too. These are from test prep categories.

This seems like a massive call fallout of the company.

Unacademy in deep shit 💩

Program Manager

There has been internal new circulation going on that the IAS Co-founder at Unacademy is finally leaving the organisation.

He already sold his stakes in the company worth 700Cr last year and was sticking around because of the face value

However with a failure to raise capital and grow revenue, Investors have asked roman to exit.

Unacademy is truly going deep shit.

Unacademy co-founder exits 🤦💩

Unacademy elevated Jagnoor as (COO) of its offline centres business in January this year. However due to tiff with GM, he has decided to part ways with Unacademy.

Unacademy is nearing its death with every leadership exit.

TRULY SAD TO SEE THE HOUSE OF CARDS FALLING DOWN.

Series of resignations at Unacademy 👾

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Unacademy has gone bonkers 💩

So again Unacademy has asked people to leave, and asked them to resign.

Leadership is so clueless about what they are doing, they fired 3-4 people whom they had hired a month ago. Imagine the situation 😂

And I don't see this stopping at Unacademy anytime soon

They are aching left, right and centre. Still some people are making advt videos with Sachin.

And the nalla has time to tweet and enjoy vacation, I pity the investors who funded them.

100th Layoff round at Unacademy

Growth Manager

Unacademy Again...

Was interviewing at one of the acquisitions of a major edtech player for a design role in Bangalore roughly 2 years ago.

🚩 Didn't share agreement on email unless I came to office for a day's worth of work (after completing interview assignment).

🚩 Exit clause in agreement mentioned company can terminate contract any time with a few days notice, no provision for me ending contract (never in my life did I see such a one-sided contract).

🚩 Was asked to reuse free resources available online to repurpose content for them (why fucking raise funds if that's all you want to do).

🚩 Overheard - "Who cares about quality, just bring in teachers who are influencers that can bring more students behind them". Boiled my blood.

🚩 Was tweeting all of this in a discussion about edtech on some thread without naming the company. Got asked to chat with founder's office guy while I was leaving at the end of day. They either stalked my socials or somehow came across my tweets and wanted me to bring my concerns to seniors instead of sharing them publicly. Excuses that were given - "We are a growing company, not everyone here is on our payroll, there's a mismatch in our teams internally, will take time to fix" etc etc.

"You seem very passionate about education, you know how bad it is in India and we're trying our best to make a dent". Balls making a dent. I was even more furious by the time he was done talking.

Politely asked me to delete the tweets (which I later did because I believe in second chances and not burning bridges).

Did not sign agreement or return to work. Came to know later of more toxic stories coming out of edtech companies.

Avoid edtech in India like the plague if you're still considering applying anywhere, this shit is not worth any amount of money. They are literally destroying our future and care more about their investors and VCs rather than their students or even the larger startup ecosystem.

I hope these shitshows shut down soon.

Indian Edtech is a dumpster fire

Generalist

After fooling countless customers, investors, loan partners, byjus employees are now all set to destroy what little is left to Unacademy.
Unacademy is now frantically hiring people from BYJUs across all levels and verticals. With BYJUs employees employment stood on the base of false promises and unethical sales, it is just a matter of time, Unacademy will become the new BYJUs.

With the company’s product first approach and the apprehension towards aggressive selling, it is disheartening to see the new fondness towards BYJUs.

Uncademy the new Victim to BYJU’s

Category Lead

A lot of people at Unacademy have already resigned, and they are unable to hire replacements from the market( for who knows what reasons). Now as we all know people who are left in the organisation are going to have a tough time. 

Leaves not being approved, longer hours at work, mental harassment in the name of being available 24*7  is becoming a day to day thing. Now they are forcing people to take up sections of business one has never dealt with and are threatening to fire them if they are denying those roles. 

People who left the organisation in 2022 are the luckiest and well a bunch of well informed individuals who saw the end of this company before anyone else could have. 

What a time to be in edtech, indeed

Major Shakeup at Unacademy

Rumours are floating that Unacademy is getting sold by one of its main investors to another Edtech company in their portfolio for just 400 Million dollars, their last round valuation was 3.5 Billion dollars

But founder Gaurav Munjal said they have 200 Million in the bank. Getting confused - Is this a repeat of Byju 2.0?

They have fired the CTO and co-founder Hemesh Singh and Roman Saini ( other co-founder) is also not seen anywhere

I am worried if more people are to be laid off?

Unacademy in bad shape

Unacademy is on another level

Investor

Hey all. My first post here. Can anyone tell me what the work culture is like at Unacademy and Upgrad. Currently in another ed-tech firm and looking for a shift.

Work Culture

Operations Manager

NGL this is one of the smartest tweets 😂

Gaurav Munjal refutes claims made my media that Unacademy is in dire times

I don't understand, the sector that makes sureshot money on small and medium scale is continuously failing on pan India scale.

A small IIT coaching in Patna with 2 centres generates profit in crores but these Byjus and Unacademy are not really able to do anything significant in long run.

Unacademy is up for sale

Founding Engineer

Can someone share what's going on inside unacademy. What new products are they launching. How good is the traction and runway
