Things going terrible at Gojek/GoTo

Almost one year later of, Gojek CO-CEO Kevin steped down from his role, today GoTo CEO Andre also stepped down from his position.

Now, one of the the primary investor is taking his role of GOTO CEO. Investor being CEO is worrisome 😞

And this is just 2-3 days after Pune office shutdown and 3rd round of layoff.

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.
