Maurya had recently posted about looking for a full-time graphic designer job in Delhi. Soon after, he announced joining a new company but his post led to backlash online. Some people congratulated him on his new job while others criticised his remarks. Many felt that his statement implied a sexist mindset by suggesting that workplaces with women automatically have drama and politics.

In the comment section, Maurya’s post became a hot topic of discussion where social media users shared their varied opinions.
One user shared his own experience, writing, “Sir, I was a part of a team of about 20 people with 6 ladies in it and all of us worked with the same grit and discipline. We cannot generalise cult in a team. You may be unlucky to not have team player’s previously. But believe me, working with ladies in your team is also important."
Taking a sharp jab, a person wrote, “So, no women at home also to avoid drama? Life must be really peaceful for you."
“I’m working at the same kinda workplace. Trust me, it’s no better!" someone shared.
“You are mistaken.. all male colleagues = office politics," another argued.
One person pointed out that it’s actually older employees who fuel office politics.
Another simply warned, “Expect super politics soon."
A frustrated user labeled the post as “disgusting," while an individual called it the “weirdest flex I’ve ever seen."
However, not everyone disagreed with Maurya. Some backed him up, with one user calling his workplace a “corporate haven." Another related to his experience, saying, “Hahaha, true. Same in my case. Joined a similar company 1 week back."
A person commented, “I can smell the sukoon and freshness in the team."
