NextLevel has entered maintenance mode. Friends working on it have kind of confirmed.
Idk why they even started this product. There was zero need for it, but management just HAD to have their way.
Everyone working on NextLevel has basically given up at this point. We're in maintenance mode, just waiting for the official announcement. The product roadmap was a joke from day one. Instead of focusing on something actually useful, they kept adding random bells and whistles. Oh, let's make it like Gas app with polling! Let's throw in some Inshorts-style news! 🙄

This is a lesson for anyone trying to build in the consumer space. You can pour all the resources you want into something, but if your thinking is fundamentally flawed, you're just burning the money.
Management needs to actually listen to people who know what they're talking about. But nah, they'd rather chase their pet projects and ego trips.
Wow, that was some NextLevel bs 💩

From relevel we have understood that they ultimately want to sell us a course by misleading us that we are incapable of getting a job a...
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.
