An IIT graduate, who had built a thriving shoe brand earning ₹2 crore a month, left his own successful company to become an engineer at a startup. This bold move has sparked curiosity and debate online. But here's where it gets controversial... Pranshi Chaturvedi, the founder and CEO of Bellish Group, shared the story of this IITian's journey on X. She met the IIT Kanpur graduate on a recent trip and learned about his successful shoe brand. Despite the impressive monthly sales, the founder was unhappy and decided to leave entrepreneurship to work for someone else. According to Chaturvedi, the IITian's decision was primarily due to supply issues and the challenges of dealing with manufacturers in Surat. He was tired of the constant problems and wanted to use his engineering skills in a different way. Some internet users were surprised by the IITian's decision, questioning the reasons behind it. One user suggested that it takes courage to walk away from success, while another pointed out the unorganized nature of the labor-intensive manufacturing sector. However, others like Gaurav Sharma emphasized the constant challenges and pressures faced in manufacturing, which require people who can absorb pressure and execute with discipline. This story invites discussion and invites readers to share their thoughts on the IITian's decision and the challenges of entrepreneurship. Do you think the IITian made the right choice? Or is there a story worth hearing behind his decision?
