Joined last year. Left within a few months for another offer. Their tech is solid and the team I joined was very nice. One of my referrals joined gojek on my last working day. He was fired eventually in Nov layoff. He joined another startup with almost same pay. Gojek has essentially stopped hiring in Bangalore and taken all the hiring to Indonesia.
