Walmart-owned digital payments platform PhonePe plans to more than double its total employee strength to 5,400 across the country by the end of December 2022 from existing 2,600.
The company said that the hiring will be across levels and functions for engineering, product, analytics, business development and sales teams. Phonepe said, “There are about 2,800 open job positions that the company is planning to fill in the next 12 months across Bengaluru, Pune, Mumbai, Delhi, and the rest of the country.”
The company also claims that it has lower attrition rates as it offers remuneration packages higher than the market standard, and gives wealth creation opportunities to all employees through Employee Stock Ownership Plans.
Phonepe's HR head Manmeet Sandhu said, “We are building a long-term sustainable organisation, anchored on technology, and unlocking value for all. We are proud that PhonePe has emerged as the employer of choice for smart, ambitious people who are keen on creating outsized impact. The company offers the opportunity for people to learn and grow by getting to work on some of the most complex problems in the industry.”
PhonePe has recently announced the launch of Mothers @PhonePe aimed at providing flexibility to mothers so they can come back to the workforce when they are ready. It also launched Parents@PhonePe, a parallel programme that covers secondary caregivers, aimed at promoting a balanced distribution of responsibilities among new parents.
