In September 2022 Harsimarbir Singh published a LinkedIn post on his interview hacks. It said he made candidates wait six to eight hours, scheduled interviews early in the morning or late at night, held them on Sundays and asked outstation candidates to report the next day.
The post drew widespread criticism online. He deleted it, but screenshots kept circulating.
It came nine months after Pristyn Care became a unicorn. A 96 million dollar Series E in December 2021 valued it at 1.4 billion dollars. In June 2022 the company acquired Lybrate.
In March 2024 Pristyn Care laid off about 120 people in a second round. Its FY24 operating revenue was 600.5 crore rupees, up 32.6 percent, with a net loss of about 381 crore rupees.
