Hyderabad Woman Laid Off by Amazon Starts Chicken Farm and Sells Eggs
After being laid off by Amazon in March 2026, Hyderabad-based Maria Harshitha faced repeated job rejections while pursuing product management. Encouraged by her husband, she started a chicken farm, initially to provide fresh eggs for her family. What began with six chicks, all roosters, evolved into a business selling eggs. Harshitha draws parallels between managing her farm and product management, viewing the eggs as her own product while continuing her job search.
