[@senorita2010]

The interviewer seems a bit weird. Way of her communication and pointing out fingers, it's quite awkward.

[@vanshpatel7605]

She seems normal. One cant act like a robot not moving hands at all. She just pointed once when she was referring to the montage behind.

[@senorita2010]

@vanshpatel7605 Well, thanks for having a different perspective. I get it it's normal for you.

[@aishwarybajpai537]

​@@vanshpatel7605i agree. It's normal. Nothing weird as such

[@rogerclemens4872]

She has slept her way to the job

[@seahorsecampaign]

better word is "unprofessional"

[@bone854]

he fired his friends and then his wife as soon as he became a billionaire!!! amazing progress

[@shubhangagarwal925]

See it from pragmatic way, independent organization should not have people who are not aligned to organisations goal, he must have had months of thinking and observation before coming to this conclusion..Right or wrong is not for us to decide

[@Jb-mi7fd]

Wow, you like making conclusion and pointing fingers. Half minded people normally do this like you

[@rockersstudio5262]

Yes this guy is toxic

[@steamerSama]

wait it's bad if he keeps his friends and family and fire others, also bad if he fires his friends and family. You people just need someone to criticise like every other Indian uncle 💀

[@fortuneltd3591]

He doesn't care about your family nor should you about his. I am actually grateful he kepts emotions aside and acted logically as I made 10lac+ profit in Zomato stock alone, My best bet of last 1 year❤

[@hrudairoshan]

The interviewer cannot take an interview

[@An0nym0us-d4]

Waste person

[@seahorsecampaign]

she just did... it's just that it was so bad.

[@An0nym0us-d4]

I request economic times to just fire her or we will stop watching economic times

[@rishibatra1]

Pls fire her

For all those zero innovation comments, market didn't listen to it... check the returns plus govt make policies and organisations bound to comply

Amazing interview 👏

[@covid-19ultrapromax25]

If this man was in in Europe, he would have been sent tp jail for exploiting the helpless gig workers, but in India our govt doesn't give a fk to poor, only help rich 😡

[@ashishpbhai]

And then the gig workers would have no work. These companies are creating different kind of jobs that never existed. Appreciate that fact.

[@covid-19ultrapromax25]

@@ashishpbhai It's easy to sit in AC with mac book in front of you and type all this, sometimes listen to the pathetic condition they work under, for 14-16 hrs a day, with their pays getting slashed now and then.

[@Bulldozz1-1]

But he is not forcing the gig workers to work for him, right?

[@mithunmahato309]

The condition people work in MNREGA scheme, whole government (irrespective of political parties) will be sent to jail.

[@prasadkl8326]

@@Bulldozz1-1that’s called exploitation - taking advantage of. Wrong in every sense!!

Zomato will soon shut down, vc hav make there profits now dipinder has to maintain profits without funding

[@marcuswilley9809]

They charge platform fees on every order now. They were EBITDA plus in the last quarter. But they should certainly do something for gig workers.

[@_knightcrawler_]

They are already in profits

[@kaustubhraizada]

[@wickedkshitiz]

Nandan tumhara naukar h kya?

[@paritoshmoghe8668]

He firedd people because they were incompetent, but then he himself is doing the role of HR while drawing the salary of CEO. Hypocrisy much!!! but then can't expect much from indian bankya business man.

[@Jb-mi7fd]

He is the owner 😢. How stupid a comment can be. His company follows his ideology not opposite 😂. How many companies you have built from scratch till now before you say this Dumbo comment

[@its_yourparth]

That balanced game reference is from the book “zero to one” by peter theil

[@An0nym0us-d4]

Worst interviewer

[@nascentone]

The anchor have no sense of body language.

[@rajarakeshsingh]

His time is up. He dunno diddly squat how to make profit without losing customer base. Currently he is exploiting both delivery and restaurants to stay afloat. Both are eger to chuck this money off their backs. And see the super smart, the very people who could get him out of this he fired, rather than building on their expertise. If the top execs would have been given a share of the profit pie... but he wants the whole pie for himself... so sink

[@rudj.4136]

Nandan… muft ka chandan…

[@aravinnnn]

his company delivers food from restaurants to homes, there is no innovation here

​@@Dattebayo3089we need company to employ people it doesn't matter that it copied china also copied amarican company

​@@Dattebayo3089kuch bhi. Zomato was founded in 2008, Doordash started in 2012, so was skip. Zomato is a restaurant aggregator as well, which DD and Skip arent. DD launched food delovery in late 2013 and Zomato started it in 2015 without the proof if concept of profitability in this space. Pata nahi log jal kukdu kyun hain..15 saal mehnat karke usne company banai hai, itna asaan tha to tum bana lete..
