There is so much to say on the cons, I don’t even know where to begin:
They claim to be a technology company yet spent the good part of a year revenue managing on google sheets. Whatsapp was their preferred form of communication as refused to outsource any systems.
No real Leadership, head of departments hide all to avoid bumping into their teams to be asked questions they can’t reply to. Lying business practices, They claim they have higher numbers and communicated than actually correct to look better, lie to hotel partners to get them on board with distribution and systems, yet all they do is turn off all their channels and chuck the hotels on OTA’s without a second though. They steal all the direct business and claim it to be Oyo’s offline business and charge commission off the hotels for doing so.
Management cannot plan further than 2 weeks ahead at a time, no long term vision for Oyo, only how to hit the targets for this month whether by hook or crook.
Only two ways to get recognized at Oyo, be Indian from India or be someone with no brain cells who says Yes to everything without thinking for yourself. Only get far by pretending your busy and constantly shouting about yourself and saying how amazing you are. Not to mention the people who lied on their CV’s to get anywhere near the top.
Totally embarrassed to have worked for this company now since it has become a laughing stock in the UK across the hospitality sector.
