Within weeks of firing about 700 employees of its TaxiforSure operations, cab aggregator Ola has now sacked close to 250 people from its own workforce citing non-performance and other issues. The move comes as the Bengaluru-based firm is locked in an intense battle with global rival Uber in the Indian market. “An annual attrition of 3-4 % is a natural churn that is witnessed now. This includes performance driven exits, contract roles as well as a few surfacing from constant business realignment,” Ola said.
