No job security No projects Extreme layoffs - as they generally layoff people who are about to complete an year or have just completed an year. So Start looking for job once you have completed 8 months in Paytm.

Is Paytm's New AI Feature Really as Good as It Sounds?

Paytm just launched a partnership with Perplexity, the AI search engine, promising free, instant answers to our questions. Sounds amazing, right? But here’s where I start to question it. While it’s cool that we can now get answers instantly without paying, I can’t help but wonder, what's the catch? With Paytm already collecting so much data from its users through payments, transactions, and now AI queries, how much of our personal information are we really giving up? I s this just another way for Paytm to further track and monetize user behavior, all while pretending to be “user-friendly”? 🤔💸 And let’s be real....this "free" service might just be a way to make us more dependent on their platform, conditioning us to rely on them for EVERYTHING. Do we really trust Paytm to handle our data, or are they just using this as another step to dominate the market?
