The layoffs began in Bengaluru on November 15, following which over 500 people were told to leave in Chennai and over 200 in Hyderabad on December 12 and 13, according to ForIT (Forum for IT Professionals).
The employees had earlier alleged that bouncers and counsellors were present in the room, when they were summoned to meet HR, and asked to leave, based on a 'management decision'.
"The bouncers pushed me back into my chair and held me by my shoulders till I signed the document. It was an awful experience and I can't begin to tell how demeaning it was," one of the retrenched employees had told TNM earlier.
