Zomato has let go of 600 customer support associates over the last year, achieving operational efficiency through AI-powered customer support platform Nugget.
The majority of these contractual workers were not renewed at the end of their tenure.
Zomato fired over 500 employees from its Gurugram and Hyderabad offices, citing reasons like minor attendance issues, relations with managers, and AI-generated performance assessments.
Zomato saw a decline in profits in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and its quick commerce arm, Blinkit, has faced challenges due to competition and rapid expansion.
