Techie Resigns After Being Blamed For Project Delay Due To Father's Death
Last Updated: An Indian techie resigned from his company after his manager blamed his marriage and father's death for project delays. An Indian tech professional recently opened up about the mental harassment he endured at work, which ultimately pushed him to resign. In his post, he revealed that the mistreatment went beyond professional boundaries; he faced personal attacks involving his father and his marriage, leaving him with no choice but to step away from the job. The post begins with the techie saying that he joined the company as a fresher in 2022 on a CTC of Rs 8.5 lakh. 'From day one, the environment felt toxic and manipulative — you could clearly sense the unhealthy hierarchy and how everyone in tech was focused on pleasing a particular senior person rather than doing meaningful work," he said. In the 2024 appraisal cycle, the employee listed his achievements. He said that most of the management appreciated his work, but 'that one influential person didn't". The user said that this was because he was not one of those trying to please that person constantly. The employee resigned in April 2024, but was retained with the promise of being given a 55% hike one year later, that is in April 2025. This was only a verbal agreement with no written record. During the 2025 appraisal cycle, he got only a 37% hike instead of 55% as promised. However, this was not the reason for his resignation. The user explains the backdrop by stating that he got engaged in December 2024, married in February 2025, and lost his father in April 2025. During the appraisal, he had a one-on-one meeting with his team lead, who said, 'You should have resigned around your wedding, do you even realize how much your marriage delayed the work? Because of your father's situation and the leave you took, my timeline commitment couldn't be fulfilled." This stunned the techie. 'That was the final straw for me. I looked at him and said very calmly, 'Please watch what you're saying and think before you speak. Choose your next words carefully,'" he said. Finally, the employee resigned on June 3 without a job offer. 'I'm honestly unsure whether this was the right call — the job market is tough, and I'm not fully prepared for interviews yet," the user posted. The post saw several reactions on Reddit. 'Name and shame the company so that others don't have to go through what you went through," said one user. 'I know how it is to be under a toxic person. You stood up for yourself, and we are proud of that. And one day you will be glad that you did. You will surely get into some good company," wrote another user. What do you think about it?

Quick commerce job growth outpaces ecommerce, modern trade
The growth of quick commerce has led to the creation of many new jobs, especially in last-mile delivery and operational roles. A report by TeamLease estimates that the sector will employ up to 5.5 lakh people by next year. Currently, there are 2.5 to three lakh outdoor delivery workers and 70,000 to 75,000 employees working in dark stores and warehouses.

Direct jobs include essential day-to-day roles such as warehouse and fulfilment centre staff, delivery workers, and employees in stores and dark stores. Live Events Last-mile delivery is the most labour-intensive part of quick commerce, with over 46 workers employed per Rs 1 crore of monthly gross merchandise value (GMV), making it the most demanding in terms of workforce among retail types. Discover the stories of your interest Blockchain 5 Stories Cyber-safety 7 Stories Fintech 9 Stories E-comm 9 Stories ML 8 Stories Edtech 6 Stories Indirect jobs cover roles in corporate offices, IT, and packaging companies that support the quick commerce sector. While important, these roles are smaller in number compared to operational positions. Qcomm vs other retail channels When comparing workforce: General trade ( kirana stores , local grocery stores) leads with 63 to 66 jobs per Rs 1 crore of monthly GMV Quick commerce is close behind with 62 to 64 jobs Modern trade (supermarkets, hypermarkets) follows with 41 to 42 jobs Ecommerce comes last with 25 to 29 jobs. In quick commerce, last-mile delivery alone accounts for 46 out of 62 jobs, a sharp contrast to ecommerce, which employs only 13 to 15 in this area. In modern trade, these roles are minimal. Future job growth in qcomm The report claims that quick commerce mainly draws demand from other retail formats: about 92–93% of its sales come from modern trade, general trade, and ecommerce. However, 6–8% of its sales are new, which helps stimulate additional consumer demand and generate new jobs. By 2025, the sector is expected to see a 60% rise in gig worker hiring , fuelled by the rising need for faster deliveries. This expansion is expected to create 15 to 18 new jobs per Rs 1 crore of monthly GMV, with about five jobs coming purely from increased demand. These roles will mainly be in last-mile delivery, warehouse management, and operations — the areas where job growth is most closely linked to order volume.
