Top student Jun went bankrupt. Will the road of withdrawing classes and refunding fees be clear?

Ai Caijing came to top student Jun's headquarters in Beijing Hanhai International Building, only to find that the work area was empty, the bright Red Balloon was still in front of the work station, and the banner of "year-end sprint, perfect ending" was still hung in the office area. On the16th floor where the company's front desk is located, only a dozen people are left to receive and handle the parents who come to refund.

Top student Jun's Shanghai headquarters is similar. On the morning of the 28th, no one answered the phone at the headquarters. A Shanghai employee in the same building as top student Jun told Ai Caijing, "This big melon is very close to me. I am on the 1 1 floor, and they (Shanghai top student Army Headquarters) work on the 10 and 12 floors. " According to a person familiar with the matter, top student Jun's Shanghai headquarters has started to forcibly reclaim the company's property such as computers, and arranged for employees to leave their posts.

Since the beginning of this year, the education industry has been in constant turmoil, and top student Jun has become another "shocking" enterprise after Yousheng Education.

Parents, employees and teachers are all victims.

Top student Jun was founded on 20 13, and its business mainly includes photo search, K 12 one-on-one tutoring, etc. Among them, top student Jun APP is a learning aid software for students, which provides online free answers to homework questions and difficulties for junior and senior high school students. Up to now, six times of financing have been completed. Among them, the latest one is Round C completed at the beginning of 20 17, with a transaction amount of 1 100 million USD.

However, it is such a star company that relies on well-known employers such as Trust Capital and China Merchants Capital, but it was smashed by funds and went bankrupt. Over the past year, top student Jun has been complaining constantly, and all kinds of refunds are not timely.

Regarding the rumor that Qian ran away and went bankrupt, top student Jun founder 65438+replied in a WeChat group on February 28th: "I haven't lost contact yet, and I'm trying to solve the problem. The company is already evacuating employees. "

It is also rumored that top student Jun's Hefei business will be taken over by homework help. But then the relevant personnel in homework help denied this. The source said that homework help recruited staff in Hefei Branch, and local top student Jun personnel came to apply, but homework help did not buy top student Jun.. It is rumored that the relevant personnel of another company, 5 1Talk, who took over top student Jun, also said that they didn't know about "supporting top student Jun" for the time being.

According to top student Jun's internal documents, the company delayed the payment of teachers' salaries in 1 1 month and 65438+February on the grounds of supplier payment and bank interface problems, and prompted that the payment time would be notified separately. At the same time, the academic director of top student Jun also posted a message in the circle of friends: "The partial acquisition of top student Jun is equivalent to bankruptcy, and everyone has no salary. At present, teachers are queuing to hand in their work mobile phones and card numbers. " According to the company, the greatest significance of recycling work mobile phones and mobile phone numbers is to cut off the contact between teachers and parents to avoid escalation.

Top student Jun has also promised the teacher to help him find a new home, and the new home will reissue his salary.

In addition, the director of education also said that teachers are also victims, and they hope to join hands with their parents to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests through the law. Now all the teachers, head teachers and planners have been dismissed, and all of them have no salary and no compensation.

What's even more worrying is that during the double 1 1 and double 12 periods, top student Jun made billions of money through speculation. Top student Jun official website and Beijing branch headquarters still have promotional materials about the year-end performance sprint. Even on February 25, 65438, the sales staff were still enthusiastic and talked about the order normally.

Actually, parents who buy courses are also in trouble. Many parents not only apply for installment loan business, but also encounter the problem of delayed refund. As of February 28th, 65438, Sina Black Cat Complaint Platform had 2285 complaints about top student Jun, most of which were related to the difficulty in refunding fees and false propaganda.

"When you sign up, you can get a refund if you are not satisfied with the promotion. Now the phone number is empty, the teacher can't contact, the customer service is unattended, and there is no way to refund. " Some parents even complained: "Registration at the end of 20 19, the course effect is not good. I applied for a refund in February at the beginning of the year, but it has not been processed so far. Not only is the phone number of the class teacher empty or can't get through, but the customer service phone number of the company headquarters is not answered. " Similar situations are too numerous to mention.

On the morning of February 28, 65438, Ms. Li, a parent who went to Beijing headquarters to defend her rights, said: "The company received it, but only filled out the refund application form. However, these have no practical effect. "

Set up a new company or transfer assets.

According to the latest public data, top student Jun has more than 5 million student users. By the beginning of 20 19, top student Jun had nearly 500 technicians, more than 300 teaching and research personnel, nearly 40,000 registered teachers and more than 50,000 paying users. In the eyes of the industry, such a huge scale of personnel has something to do with the vicious expansion of top student Jun.

According to a person familiar with the education industry, "top student has its disadvantages and is a typical vicious competition. Recruitment and sales in the same region, the basic salary of others is 2,000 yuan, and that of top student Jun tripled to 6,000 yuan. People naturally flow to their own companies. However, what is extremely cheat people is that the phenomenon of wage arrears is very serious, and there are no layoffs and no compensation. "

In addition, an employee also revealed that Zhang, the founder of top student Jun, had newly registered the company a few months ago, and top student Jun was responsible for making the new company website. The employee also suspected that the assets had been transferred to the new company.

Tianyancha APP shows that March this year was an epidemic, and a new company was established, which was related to Zhang, the founder of top student Jun.
