Social media is abuzz with posts about toxic work culture at Ola's AI arm Krutrim after an employee's alleged suicide.
The incident involved Nikhil Somwanshi, a machine learning engineer at Krutrim, who allegedly took his own life on May 8.
Ola stated that Somwanshi was on personal leave at the time of the incident and had requested rest prior to the tragic event.
Former employees have raised concerns about mediocre work, incompetent management, and high toxicity levels at Krutrim as the company witnessed several management-level exits in the past year.
