Please tell that Zomato had laid off 2 months back in November. According to reports, the company had laid off at least 4% of its total workforce. About 3,800 employees work in Gurugram-based company Zomato. Zomato had also laid off in 2020, when the company fired about 13% of its 4,320 staff i.e. more than 550 employees due to the slowdown in business due to the pandemic.
Earlier in December, Zomato's co-founder and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Gunjan Patidar resigned from the company. Before Gunjan, three top level employees of the company had also redesigned. Zomato co-founder Mohit Gupta, new initiatives head Rahul Ganju and intercity head Siddharth Jewar had resigned citing stability concerns at the senior level management.
