The move comes as the edtech company has already let go of thousands of employees this year, while grappling with multiple legal and financial woes.
The startup operates out of three offices in India’s IT hub of Bengaluru, of which one has been “practically vacated”, one source told Reuters. The downsizing to two floors from two towers has been underway for almost a month, the source added.
Another person with direct knowledge of the matter said that of the six floors at its main corporate office, only three are operational, with the downsizing happening over the last six to eight months.
