Layoff due to excessive and unnecessary hiring.
The UK Team is simply using the company's funds without producing any profit. Few people are doing nothing except sitting on the management team. You won't believe there are 8 persons in management/leadership of a total of 20 workers on the product team.
By enacting unnecessary regulations, processes, and misleading perceptions, the leadership team creates bottleneck conditions for India team that generates profits.
Few examples,
The product is not performing as intended; blame the India team.
Inability to meet targets, delegate to India team
If the process isn't working, adopt it in the India team and blame them for not following it.
In order to modify policies and minimise perks, This must be enforced to India team.
Costs have risen, Lets layoff members of the India team. (They layed off few employees who had been with the firm for 4-5 years.)
Few roles are filled in the UK Team owing to demands from management/leadership that are not necessary. HR, designers, researchers, and so forth. This results in unnecessary employment and, eventually, layoffs.
The majority of income is generated by the India team, who has been working really hard to satisfy expectations and goals. However, all the credit taken by the so-called Leadership team. The India squad is performing like a puppet and doing all that is said to them.
If you join this firm in India, exercise caution. You will receive assistance from India team members and the Director, but you will face numerous mental harassment, delegated work from the UK, daily stress of layoff, and rules from leadership.
The policies are subject to change at any time. Layoffs can occur at any time. There is no job security.
