How is Jupiter doing?

I have read that they are burning a lot of money. But I still see them hiring. Have they laid people off recently? Current employees shed some light on what’s happening internally.

Their culture is definitely shit, their hrs don't even have decency to reject applicants after 3 round of discussion and assignment, that too for senior role .

Oh. That’s lame. Being unprofessional is so accepted nowadays in India, it angers me so much

Thats beyond lame , this company claim to move the mountain for their customers but treat applicants like shit , this shows complete lack of understanding what a good culture is .

Spinning as usual, blessing some and resulting in not such good yogas for others 🫠. On a serious note - Jupiter, FI etc have already shed some fat - so they have scope to hire. Uni cards is also hiring aggressively.

Jupiter always had done the regular cut of high paid incompetences. They have done it from the beginning, sometimes quite ruthlessly. Founder still has the revenue as a focus and that’s his true goal. For the HR mistakes, the founder is not involved but unfortunately he has chosen other important thinkgs to focus on.

Fi still has the very high paid incompetent and some really bad hires who steadily has degraded the culture and work quality. A Flipkart or Swiggy had done such hires very late into their series or when revenue really started. Got a read at least some of the founders have this unhealthy pride abd delusional. These guys will be too late by the time they learn.

Question is how long will they exist, it all reduces down to pretty app for federal bank, from user POV of jupiter/fi/niyo etc seems more absurd than 10min grocery,
