Top 3 questions to ask before choosing your new role.

Ofcourse Work, Pay, Location are basics however lately i have started asking: 1. How much Runway you have and what is the key reason you are not profitable (in case they are not) 2.

I know there are ways to just pass these questions however it gives you a better picture about the org, what are you some questions that one should start asking?

Shopsy - orbit shift ?

It’s a good strategy to be a second mover, learning from the first mover and doing it the better way. Shopsy was started by Flipkart as a Meesho combat with big ambitions, 3 years back. Sadly what has left of Shopsy now is, ever changing business goal posts with frequent change in the leadership board. The most recent leader who joined a couple of months back, is muddled in her own understanding to give a solid direction to the team. The work satisfaction has significantly declined in the team members, with a ~40% attrition rate in the past 2 months itself. Managers themselves are failing to keep up their team motivated. While the ground team is overworked, incremental hiring is happening at middle layers, increasing work redundancy and furthermore demotivating the middle managers. This year seems crucial for Shopsy’s relevance in the flipkart ecosystem. Let’s wait & watch.
