I've been working for the last 5.5 years in sales and projects. I kinda don't feel like doing anything anymore. Why do you think it could be? 
Things on the personal front are okay. I just find it hard to be consistently driven. 
This is my 4th company now. Got laid off from 2, and left 1 due to the pandemic. 30 y.o. now, single with an MBA with a niche specialisation from a decent college, which isn't being used anywhere. 
Had to take a pay cut while joining this one. Big chunk. Talk about ESI level salary. 
Feel a lack of growth in professional tools, and completely demotivated to even learn despite buying a million courses online, can't join FT cos obviously I can't stop working rn. (Sigh)

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Grapevine seems to be leaning towards tech related roles and organization, which is good but it would be great if people from other domains also talked about their companies.

Folks from the FMCG segment, let's talk about:
Your company
It's Culture
WLB
Salary.

FMCG waalon, kahaan ho?

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Everytime I open any SM app, I have advertisements lined up from various scammers/ex-Lavda/ex-lasun selling Product Management/Data Analyst and Full Stack Courses. 

It literally has made me delete most, if not all the social media apps. I'm just tired of these scammers. 

When I started in Product, I actually loved it. Now, it has become like Virar-Churchgate Local dabba with everyone coming and shitting up what was actual work. Even companies are hiring dogshit people who can't differentiate feature and bug from their elbow and ass. 

It is just tiring now. Everyone has now lost the plot.

Tired of PM Ed-Fluencers.

Found this mail from two yrs ago
Was dating this guy for 6 years
who photoshopped someone's bike to show as own, begged his ex to take him back while we were 6 months old
I was so blind in love, accepted all apologies that came along - somehow he had reasons for what he did

Slowly I was tired of this, and stepped back
3 years after break up, he mails saying he has married (arranged setup) and told his wife about us - I congratulate (what else)
2 years after he sends this, Now I am literally annoyed. (P.S. Look at the time he mailed)
My MBA kicks in, well my mental peace does have a price.

Nonetheless, didn't get any response!

Glad I moved on and how!
*pat on back*

My friend informed that silent layoffs are expected in Gojek today

Layoff Gojek

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Heard from a friend that he flew out to his office in the middle of the night from his wedding because mortgage backed securities started to crumble in NA during ’07 crisis.

Dude was bummed.

What is the worst thing your boss did to you?

Initially he asked me to fill his water bottle, bring snacks for him. Dint mind doing 1-2 times. But it was continuous with other juniors too.  
  
 Took a chance one day to spit on his water bottle and brought snacks for the whole team (20 people, kurkure and frooti).  🫢

Personally, Antifragile by Nassim Nicholas Taleb and Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.

The concept of Antifragility, where systems and individuals not only withstand chaos but actually benefit from it, had reshaped my perspective on risk, resilience, and adaptability. It is extremely complementary to the writings of Marcus Aurelius but differing in key ways.

While both Antifragility and Stoicism encourage resilience in the face of adversity, they approach it differently. Stoicism emphasizes inner calm and acceptance of what cannot be changed, while Antifragility encourages actively seeking out challenges and volatility to grow stronger. 

For me, the blend of these philosophies provides a more holistic approach to navigating life's uncertainties, combining the wisdom of the ancient Stoics with a proactive stance toward embracing chaos and harnessing it for personal growth.

Looking for a girl in arranged marriage.

Not going to lie but Ashneer was right, Mankur Marikoo ka naam saath mei mat lena, tu mujhe gaali se se but naam saath mei mat lena( because he’s the biggest scam artist after Dakshat Shrivastava)

 Just like Vauld, Marikoo turns out to be the biggest sell out of all time yet again. With Fraud Shamani and Chetan Bro-goat following him, they promoted a scam Startup Conference in Noida stating you can raise funding there, that too within 3 days.

Turns out you have to pay 💰 a boatload of cash to get into the conference. Now it turns out to be a scam when the organisers fled away with the money.

It’s a pity that people follow these charlatans who masquerade as superior beings while their true character is revealed in moments like this..

Latest Scam: Ankur Warikoo, Chetan Bhagat, Raj Shamani

The economy went down? Yes. Did it affect all kinds of companies? Yes

Did the banks fire any one? No 
Did the Railways fire anyone? No 
Did the media agencies fire anyone? No 

Did Large Tech companies and IT fire people? Absolutely yes 

Tech is the most ruthless-stupid sector that is so flimsy and short sighted that it doesn't care jack-shit about employees

Tech companies will pay employees large salaries in a heartbeat, they'll hire 1000s of them and then fire 100s of them in a heartbeat destroying careers. 

Sigh!

Tech has failed to be a good employer; Layoffs are just one example

Not the way it works. 
It's a function of how fast an industry grows -> The faster it is, the more you have to hire in advance, because you know if the pace continues, you'll need as many. 

Railways needs 5K people this year, they need 5K next year
Google needs 5K people, they need 7.5K next year (if things continue) 
At startup needs 500 people today, it needs 2000 next year (if pace continues) 

So when the pace does not continue, the impact is equally drastic.
Startup fires 25-30%
Google fires 5-10%
Railway fires no one.

Now why everyone is talking about benefits of working from office?
I saw post from Sunil Shetty on linkedin.

My take is, when pandemic hit companies asked employees to WFH to keep wheel rolling.
Now we know WFH can give greater control over personal and professional life(at least for me) we don’t want to go back to office.

In my opinion corporate want us to work from office cause,

- they can control our time, 9hrs in ofc, you are getting paid for time not skills.
- they want to show who is the boss here.
- Learning is key reason for WFO, bullshit, we have a lot of learning portals and traffic time can be used to learn but it is never a intention.

What you guys think?

WFH vs WFO

WFO- if you’re at entry level/early days of your career 
 WFH- works for mid- senior folks

You don't find children playing in the streets,
Digital masturbation and never ending Google sheets,
Offices are becoming more air conditioned,
and lot's of I-macs and I-phones,
Everything is getting touch screen while we start loosing our touch with knowns,

The black and white TV, broken pencils of school,
that lost eraser, making friends April fool,
The silence of the past had more chatter of neighbours,
The silence of today is honking& groaning cars,

This life is busy and buzzy,
This life is too uneasy,
Driven by managers and anxiety,
More introverted society,

But hey...
Let's own for a change,
let's make another neighbour friend,
Let there be friends talking, while phone charging,
Let there be a call to mom back in town,
More street cricket and bad Minton,
Another dice of Ludo and flicking carrom,
Let us wake up early
Let us eat timely

Let us sit together sometime,
Sit together and speak the burden in our hearts,
Alone in my Room I recite this rhyme
Someday let's go back to the start....

Sending you 🍇

Life these days...

Got impacted in the layoff at Sharechat today after working 4+years here.
Got the news an hour back and have not shared this with anyone in my family yet.

I am sad and have to share this news with my fiancee and in-laws today. Tell them why I have to cancel vacation plans and look out for a job instead.

I am into an arranged married and my in-laws are very conservative and don't understand tech work culture, I don't know how they will take the news of a layoff.

I'm anticipating they will be shocked, her asshole brother-in-law will even make fun of me.

To make it worse the fault is mine for believing I won't be laid off when my company was not doing well. I thought it would not happen to me and never looked out in advance.

Fuck 2023. What a shit show Christmas.

Laid off, embaressed and sad

I don’t think you should cancel the vacation.  
  
 My point is - all hiring team members would be out, so nothing will change in hiring spheres.  
  
 But you should face your in-laws and you’ll learn more about them before you tie the knot. Job loss is temporary, getting into a relationship is more longer term.

Today, all of a sudden, some folks got emails that they have been laid off. There is an uncertainty around the transparency of layoffs now. It was communicated org wide last March and November when then last 2 layoffs were conducted. This time, no-one seems to know how many people got impacted and who got impacted.

Some people at head/lead/senior positions have started voluntary leaving as well. Not sure if they are being asked to leave or if they are leaving themselves.

Hard to see these things happening in a company with an amazing work culture. :/

3rd round of layoffs at Gojek/GoTo

Work culture amazing ho ya tatti…. Jab waqt bura ho, lay-off sabka aata hai…. Kat ta sabka hai….
