Indian start-up Yes Madam fires employees who indicated being stressed in the survey

Toxic positivity in action

The stressed employees were almost certainly the high performers lmao

Whenever you are having a bad day just remember you had like 1/4 chance of spawning in India

“The beatings will continue until morale improves.”

Well, that is going to backfire because they just made all new stress for the current employees

Don't ever engage with culture sensing surveys honestly. The only place they weren't a trap (ironically) was the US Army where they did it on paper, punished people for putting their names on them, and walked right past your entire immediate chain of command to their bosses with the results. And the one time things were truly bad they literally brought in a Sociology expert to study our unit and figure out how things had gone bad, it resulted in all new leadership and team building exercises, in a war zone. (These results do not extend to other branches, I had one done by the Navy and it was corpo trap bullshit, got a lot of the Army guys there by surprise.)

Imagine firing all competent employees

Please tell me this is fake. Please?!?!!??

True story: I once worked for a startup where the head of HR kept a spreadsheet he called his "naughty and nice" list. For every employee he had a score that boiled down to "risk to the company". He would send out surveys like this and say things like "your feedback is strictly confidential", then use the responses to determine people's scores. Of course other things like any kind of complaint he overheard went into it too.

And they just included them all in the 'to' instead of bcc. Very professional.

this is likely satire/a publicity stunt by the way

edit: proof. trust your gut yall.

Every company I've worked at sends these surveys out and says they are "anonymous". I never respond to them.

1. If they are truly anonymous, why does my boss personally call me out to respond to them? I know it may track if you have submitted the survey. If it has that capability, then it can track you.

2. I don't want a "moral boosting" pizza party. Give me more time off or more pay.

And no one gave critical/constructive feedback ever again. Mission accomplished!

We did it, Patrick! We solved workplace stress!

I have seen the exact same behavior here Canada with companies that are led by Indians. They treat it like a sweatshop. and this was an office.

This has got to be from The Onion... Right?

So fucked up

This is wow, I mean we are used to a lot, but wow.

They also write "100% Purely Bhartiya Brand" on their (really terrible) page. I am not indian, so I might be wrong, but this raises some questionmarks.

Click bait publicity stunt. No one was fired.

That is…what a way to inspire mass exodus in the remaining employees.

Here, be honest. Thank you. You’re fired. This feels very Trump-y.

"It's not me, it's you"

I’m very surprised anyone in this community would actually believe this. As several of the cross posts detail, India has better worker protections than this. It’s almost guaranteed fake. Also the text doesn’t match up across the screenshot so it looks photoshopped in some way.

Honestly the name of their company is the more shocking part.

But they told me the survey was anonymous!

Probably just a front for tech support scam call center anyway.

Where did we go so wrong man

If you are dissatisfied with your current position, it may be more productive to focus on exploring new opportunities rather than remaining in an unfulfilling role.

No one was firebombed at YesMadam!

To my Lemmy family and community,

I sincerely apologize for any distress caused by my recent social media post calling for the firebombing of YesMadam's corporate headquarters. Let me be clear: I would never take such an inhuman step. I deeply respect the value of all human life.

My social media post was a planned effort to highlight the serious issue of firebombing corporate headquarters. And to those who shared angry comments of voiced strong opinions, I say thank you. When people speak up, it shows they care.

Were YesMadam's corporate headquarters really firebombed? Absolutely not.

My coworker said he was stressed out on a survey and the forced therapy. We all made fun of him for telling the truth.
