Mumbai D2C brands lose talent to better-funded rivals

Direct-to-consumer (D2C) brands in Mumbai are struggling to retain talent due to a significant funding disparity compared to rivals in cities like Bengaluru and Gurugram. Well-funded competitors can offer higher salaries and lucrative stock options, systematically poaching key personnel, often at critical times like product launches. Founders often mismanage this challenge through panic hiring or leaving roles vacant, leading to team burnout and further attrition. Specialist recruitment consultants in Mumbai offer a solution by providing access to passive talent, market compensation insights, and improved hiring processes to help brands build a more resilient talent architecture.
