WellHired's take

“Meesho has built its entire growth story around serving the price-sensitive, non-metro Indian consumer - a genuinely different (and harder) problem than most consumer apps chasing urban, high-income users, which makes for interesting product and pricing problems. The company runs lean relative to its scale and reach, so expect a frugal, execution-heavy culture - a good fit if you're motivated by breadth of impact (hundreds of millions of underserved users) over working with the flashiest tech stack.”

About Meesho

Meesho is an e-commerce company founded in 2015 by Vidit Aatrey and Sanjeev Barnwal, headquartered in Bengaluru, that started by enabling social sellers to resell products via WhatsApp and Facebook and has since grown into a full online marketplace. The platform focuses heavily on affordability and reach into India's tier-2 and tier-3 cities, connecting small manufacturers and sellers directly with price-sensitive consumers, and has become one of the most-downloaded shopping apps in India.
