All is not well at Paytm Money

A subsidiary of Paytm, it has been hit by a string of exits in Senior leadership in last 6 months CFO: Amit Kapoor, gone Head of Mutual Funds: Nisharg Golash, gone Head of Product: Manish Reddy, gone Head of Growth: Sourav Choraria, gone Head of Marketing: Divya Chakravarthy, moved internally Head of Compliance: Sudhendoo Gandhi, moved internally

You can search these people on LinkedIn to verify.

This is a result of an increasingly toxic work culture where performers are penalized with more work while slackers make merry. This culture is driven from the top with current senior leadership who haven't left the firm have survived by the virtue of sycophancy.

Instead of firing people, they are being asked to resign so that the company is not in news.

I've personally seen this in co's rev teams, a new CTO has been hired from within Paytm. Employees are given 'negative ratings' in appraisal, which the CEO called 'an HR experiment'.

Not sure if something is really wrong. I know for sure that Manish Reddy left to start off his own venture. Almost everyone got promoted to next role this year.

It's even worse bro, I've heard the CFO had to resign after sebi caught them in some shady shit. It was all hushed and they paid a fine to stop it from coming in news.
