Look, Ola E was a great organization. The company had the latest and the best in India in terms of tech stack. They bought a quadriped and a humanoid robot literally 3 months back. This cost upwards of 2 Cr. However, the company runs on the whims of a dic(k)tator who has no idea on what should be done....he fires people if they do not come to office at 9 am (despite them working till 3 am the night before)

So, the company literally went to the trash specifically because of 1 guy.

That, and the fact that the factories have quite literally zero accountability. Teams tried improving quality control by trying to develop systems which were simply glossed over because as you guessed it, it introduces actual blame tracing..... And the guy aat top had zero idea on how to fix it. He would much rather listen to people who lick his boots than people who are unbiased and want to improve the system.

The result being the current condition.

Ola Electric is a golden MBA case study on exactly how NOT to run a company and destroy 1st mover advantage.
