Hi Everyone, This post is about the Toxic Co-Founder of Quantiphi (Mr Toxic Asif Hassan).
Reasons:
Work-Culture has become Toxic, People in Project are working since 5 weekends without any single leave ( No Extra Pay/No Comp-offs/ No weekend Leaves) and that to 13-14hours a day Straight.
People in my project who have raised voices have been told (" You know what options you have and I have "). Indirectly saying if you revolt either i will fire you or you resign immediately.
People facing issues with Clients(Canda's BigTicket Insurance Firm) paying a huge amount for an un-realistic deadline project were told by Asif. If you have any problems that don't come to me, i want only solutions( He doesn't want to listen to Anyone).
People were forcefully told to come to the office ( Some people who had some genuine issues e.g. one of our colleagues recently got blessed with a baby) was told by Asif you are not the one caring for the baby, So you have to come.
All our advanced leaves are cancelled, People who are taking Sick leave are being told either bring your backup or work with your Illness, we don't care.
Issues raised with HR, HR says "We cant do anything".
In the last 7 days many senior people and colleagues were either Forcefully resigned / got Laid-Off.
The people suffering the most are the ones directly in touch with the client or the developers reason being Asif bashes Managers and Managers Bash us for No fault of ours because of the un-realistic deadlines set.
People revolting are put on the bench and are laid-off the next day without any reason.
The Moral of the whole team is near to Zero and many of us are thinking to voluntarily Resign from this toxic workplace.
Guys do suggest, should we call out these kinds of toxic Co-Founders and Companies or not. I need to help me reach this post to a wider audience.
Happy to hear comments.
In my last company, a coworker of mine joined us from Quantiphi.He told me there was too much stress in Quantiphi and very poor work life balance. He is a smart guy, from older IIMs. But the insane pressure and toxic work culture was something he couldn't handle. He was so relieved now to be in an organization that gave him peace of mind at the end of the day and he gave all the credit to my department head for creating a positive work culture.
He didn't say anything about the co-founder but yeah, toxic work culture was a problem even during his tenure there.
Leave asap

I am working at a project in an MNC which is highly toxic and expecting team members to work in night as well as on weekends and also they expecting to working in public holidays.
Team lead also of a blaming nature.
I am totally frus...
How do you deal with extreme work pressure and a toxic working environment. I'm just done with my current company the culture is so toxic that people are leaving left and right. Dev's are working even on weekends and are denied leave. If...
Toxic partner, toxic manager, toxic senior. BUT I LOVE MY COMPANY AND WORK PROFILE. What should be done?
It can be either a strange workplace policy, an altercation with a manager or absolutely anything else.
