Startup fires employee a day after he told managers he planned to marry a co worker

He asked about policy first — then termination hit

An employee at a small Indian startup said he was warned he could be terminated just a day after informing his managers about plans to marry a co-worker. He claimed the two worked in different roles with no direct reporting line and that he disclosed the news professionally, asking whether any company policy applied. The post sparked debate on workplace ethics and hiring practices.
