Only a risk that is probably associated with every startup. A risk where, your role may not fit sometime in larger scheme of things. However, this is a risk that everyone sign up for on the same day when you sign up the appointment letter or decide to join this ecosystem. I myself lost my role due to this but no regrets 😊. Wish Meesho, all the best ! Overall, a tremendous place to be at…

...f around 300 people and also took the access suddenly without any information... No communication from their end for the salary as well... In the month of July suddenly they took the access and since then we don't have any information about the salary or fnf.. Very brutal way of laying off I have experienced here. I know layoffs are very common but atleast they could have taken this more gently and empatheticly...They have not even informed about the last month salary, people have EMI to pay but yet not communication happening from their end. Very cruelly they take decisions and even bother to tell the employees. If you want hold the salary atleast let the employ know about, because a middle class family has to plan a hundreds of things accordingly. There are many loans or expenses that one has to calculate. We are just following up with our managers and they are clueless abou lt all this. Are you guys kidding! And then you get a mail stating "sorry for the inconveniences, you salary will be credited soon", seriously! This was the last thing that you could have done properly. Your simple apologies won't really help the one who just got laid off and with NO commitment of salary and thrown away from the organization. I wonder why the people still don't have faith on Meesho app.

Poor work life balance, promotes people only at higher positions already and within the circle of the leadership. There are endless reviews every month, hardly leave time to actually do something

time at Meesho was disheartening as the company seemed to be plagued by issue of favouritism and politics, layoff, which heavily influenced performance evolution and stunted carrier growth opportunities. Rather than basing promotions on objective criteria like skill and knowledge, personal relationships were prioritised, leading to demotivation, low morale and high employee turnover. In my experience, layoffs at Meesho are particularly difficult, especially when it seemed like most talented engineers were being let go while those with personal relationship with directors were being retained. It was clear that layoffs were not based of objective criteria such as job performance and business needs. In May 2023, Vidit Aatrey suddenly called 15% layoff resulting in the termination of 251 engineers in one day and with the callous decision to make it their last working days. And other 15% approx. get layoff in yearly appraisal rating and asked to leave. if you value transparency, fairness, professional growth and job security, I suggest explore other opportunities outside of Meesho.
