This startup is wrong for this:
Or they’d be wrong for this if it actually ended up being true that they fired people who answered a survey admitting that they were stressed at work.
Regardless, people were not happy about this:
However, it doesn’t seem like the Shark Tank India startup was actually firing people. This might have all been for publicity.
YesMadam clarified:
We sincerely apologize for any distress caused by recent social media posts suggesting we dismissed employees for being stressed. Let us be clear: We would never take such an inhuman step. Our team is like family, and their dedication, hard work, and passion are the foundation of all our successes. The social media posts were a planned effort to highlight the serious issue of workplace stress. And to those who shared angry comments or voiced strong opinions, we say Thank you.
Am I reading this wrong?
YesMadam went on:
Were YesMadam employees really fired for being stressed? Absolutely not. Notifications. They weren’t fired; they were given a break to reset. They weren’t let go; they were encouraged to release their stress. They weren’t laid off; they were offered a chance to relax. They weren’t sacked; they were urged to rest and recharge.
I honestly think that might be worse!
So was this all a publicity stunt performed to get us all riled up so we would remember the name of this company?
