Soon after Zomato announced to lay off 13% of its workforce, another food tech major Swiggy has decided to let go of around 1,100 of its employees across various grades and functions in the cities and head office over the next few days. 

“This is easily the hardest and longest deliberated decision the management team and I have been faced with over recent times,” said Sriharsha Majety, CEO of Swiggy in a blog post.
