BYJU's Layoffs: In order to strengthen its hold in the world of online education, BYJU has been making acquisitions one after the other. On the other hand, the company is in the headlines for another reason. Veteran online education company Byju's is now facing similar allegations in Bengaluru after massive layoffs in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. According to media reports, there is talk of employees resigning immediately or facing dismissal.

The Karnataka State IT/ITES Employees Union, KITU, says that Byju's is laying off staff at its Bengaluru headquarters. KITU secretary Suraj Nidhianga told the media that resignations were being forcibly taken from the employees of Byju's. The HR department of the company is engaged in forcefully accepting resignations from the employees. However, no written notice has been received from the company regarding layoffs. For the past one week, the HR department has been calling the employees and asking them to resign voluntarily.

Byju Company has vehemently denied these allegations. The company has said that it is absolutely wrong that Byju's is forcing its employees to resign. BYJU is a responsible organization and follows all the laws of the country. Byju's provides employment to about 50 thousand people across India. Byju's current strategic plan to grow profitable and sustainable is rationalizing about five percent, or 2500, of these positions.
