Award for the most toxic founder

Despite how the business has done ( good or bad), some founders develop God-complex, narcissistic traits, and borderline psychopathic behaviour and in turn, ruin the overall company culture.

Ashneer doesn’t only impact the employees but the entire ecosystem. So, he is the worst.

Everyday he has a new verbal diarrhea ... according to him, except him everybody are fools. Sbi chairman... useless... government doesnt know how to make regulations... shark tank ,all cheats... he is the worlds greatest business genius.

He is not only toxic but unethical too. One of the most corrupt ones to come out of Indian startup ecosystem, and still being invited to colleges and events.
Tells you a lot about our values as a community.

Its natural for them to go crazy now. When funding was plenty theybwere worshipped as busines geniuses. Now they will have to work to prove it na. They may have made lot of money. But respect comes from running a profitable company. The paint is fading.. ugliness is now getting visible.

Bhavish has at least taken really audacious bets on manufacturing in India. Toughest of the toughest segments to work in. I can respect him for that. Ashneer thinks he is the smartest person on this planet and has contributed zilch. No one will blink an eye if bharatpe disappears.
