  A quick search returning several news articles suggests it’s real. Pretty gross.

    All the articles I’ve visited just write about the image in the OP and state that they haven’t verified the claims, f.e:
    However, India Today could not independently verify the authenticity of the viral screenshot of the email.
    indiatoday.in/…/yesmadam-stress-survey-fires-empl…

    Also interesting to how at least one reposter seem to be a digital marketer.
    “Shitiz Dogra, Associate Director of Digital Marketing at IndiGo”

    I wouldn’t be surprised if this is all fake and meant to spread the company name.

      It could very well be a PR stunt but the content in the OP is “real” in the sense that it matches what’s being reported and isn’t photoshopped or something.

        Right, I’m not accusing OP of faking his content. I’m stating the possibility of the original poster from linkedin on spreading a lie for the sake of publicity.

      Most certainly is fake.

      That can’t possibly be a real name.

      Not that this wouldn’t happen, but for me the screenshot looks a bit edited (though I’m just viewing on my phone): look at the clarity of the text in the email, then at the signature and logo. Might be that somebody just swapped out the text in an image editor.

    India? The HR teams here are worse than cartels. Heartless.

  I don’t think it’s that easy to “effective immediately “. I know my company managed them out over months. Employers in India are much better protected than in the US.

  India doesn’t recognize at-will employment

  Barring cases of severe misconduct, you generally can’t dismiss an employee in India without notice or paying the employee out. Employers need reasonable cause to involuntarily dismiss employees, which includes willful insubordination, theft, fraud, extensive unexcused absences, and disorderly conduct on company property

    And filing a case because you were illegally fired could take decades

    And that’s how disinformation killed the Information Age.

      So is it real or not?

        It’s internet real…

        Somebody really posted that on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/…/shitizdogra_firing-layoffs-job-act…

        And if you search on LinkedIn for “Ashu Arora Jha” there is an account that looks real.

        Whether or not it actually real and not just internet real is anybody’s guess. But it’s not something OP made up anyway.
