2020 just when lockdown hit. - ShareChat.
2021 - OkCredit.
and now 2023 - KhataBook.
Bro, you should also be a little more careful about the kind of 'company' you keep.
Next time consider joining a company that has a more stable / established business model even if it means taking a cut in salary.
Remember 10 years from now (whether you like it or not) your career identity will be defined by the reputation of the companies you worked for.. I would recommend you positively avoid companies that have 🌽 corny names like Khata book, Dukan, Makan etc. Also do a proper reference check ✔️ on the founders. Find out if they themselves ever worked at reputed companies where they learnt the fundamentals of business or are they just a bunch of juveniles from the same IIT Hostel who impressed VCs and basically got 🤞 lucky..
Oof, that's rough man. You'll come out of this stronger. Looking at the list of cos, it's not you it's them. And the infuriating part is, this risk is never eliminated, only managed to an extent.
What I feel is that there is very bad planning and mis hirings done, but bich really affects everyone. It’s just really bad
