Incompetent and worst leadership at Unacademy.

Unacademy is classic case of wrong hiring. Previous COO, almost all the BU heads, current marketing head, while best example for worst leadership is GM himself. You will hardly find any leader in office whom you would want to lookup to.

@Bhismpitamah this is the story of entire Startup ecosystem. Super narcissistic impatient founders with ambitions of big empires dreaming of hyper utopian tech with no empathy or people management perspective.

They don't even care about money, just their standing in the pecking order

Real problem is that even when there were some good folks, GM hardly ever listened to them. He just he did what he pleased, leading to the state where unacademy is today. While few leaders did try to bring change, The incompetent ones simply gave up early as they didn’t have spine and eventually become a puppet to Gaurav. I really wish there never comes a stage in my life where i have to be Yes-man for people like GM

The previous COO hired all his unemployed Oyo friends. Gave them huge salaries.

First they all fked oyo, got kicked out.

The whole gang then joined unacademy, fked it and left

It’s not for Unacademy, I am sure it is for GM and his yesmen. The culture is “be uncultured” at Unacademy.
GM has failed individuals and professionals because of his attitude

Unacademy Layoffs Season 20

New silent layoffs at the end of November. Some teams are merging.

So team members will be moved to new teams and then laid off 😞

Unacademy will now reach an irrelevant status like vedantu etc

Unacademy was always irrelevant as long as GM was leading it 😁

Why sad? The day there isn't any of these edtechs left is when good money will go some place slightly less shitty.
