Pocket FM, the audio series platform, has reportedly let go around 100 employees, roughly 10% of its workforce, mainly from the content team. The company says these changes are role-specific rather than company-wide layoffs. It also moved about 2,000 contract workers onto Quess Corp’s payroll as part of a cost consolidation effort.
Pocket FM has appointed Lalit Gangwar as Chief Operating Officer to lead the company’s global audio business. The move is designed to support its international expansion ambitions, building on Gangwar’s role in scaling the platform in India and helping drive its US market entry. Pocket FM says the leadership change is meant to enable predictable, long-term growth as it expands.
