EY's 26Yr old Employee death

Ernst & Young EY’s 26-year-old employee's death has fueled the toxic corporate work culture debate on social media. Earlier, Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy’s “70-hour” advice to youngsters sparked a similar discussion. Who is responsible for her death/murder? Where is the HR who said we are family? Where is the management and boot licking Executive? Dear friends only focus on the work which is good for health and life. Don't think about the company and the name of the company. Remeber: company have option at your replacement but your mom dad haven't. Business owners talk about how Japanese people work hard and grow their country but they never tell how companies treat them very professionally. I respect the business struggle but once you reach on top of business then all become the same nonsense.

Who is Narayan Murthy dude, He lived his life & now he talks rubbish to make more profit. If his next 10 generations don't work also it won't bother his family. Regarding EY employees, nothing is gonna be changed, In Kolkata a doctor was brutally raped & murdered, did anything get changed? Same for Ey employee's death as well, Nothing will change in India, uneducated gawars are holding top positions of the Government, India is a good country for politicians, If you want WLB, huge money etc, join politics. People cherish politicians more than talents here. :(

Actually toxic work culture is responsible as management had approved, there's no role of HR because he/she also be an employee or related organisation , and I think Without management approval HR is not able to apply any policies. But everyone has to think about their family as well because there are lots of jobs in market but family is only one in whole universe ..

Glorifying overwork is the most ridiculous part of an Indian professional environment. Employees being overworked is not a badge of honour, rather an eye opener for lack of efficiency on the part of an organization.

[widemermaid](username) This is heartbreaking, man. We all have to stop and think—are we living to work or working to live? Companies can replace you in a heartbeat, but no one can replace you at home. Take care of yourself first, the job will always be there.

In India, it is seen that there is too much politics in the private corporate sectors. Top management always misuse their power to get the work from the bottom line people. Junior and Senior level people don't have any escape except becoming victims of Top management. In my view, In India people should have some rights to raise their voice against corrupted and hitalar sahi management. Because, if the employer is giving us salary for our work then we are giving our most precious time and our life hours to the company for the progress of employer and company.

[excellentyellowtail](username) agree 💯, and if they are not able to defeat that person in office politics then they go for personal and individual politics which clearly shows that they don't want you here.

Honestly, I’ve been feeling this grind myself. These companies say they care, but at the end of the day, they care about deadlines and profits. It’s a tragedy, and this needs to be a wake-up call for all of us. No job is worth your life.

Nothing will change unless EY employees take action. I'm shocked to hear that no one from EY attended the funeral, it's surprising. While it's possible that management instructed the team members or employees not to attend, we can't be sure, this incident is an eye-opener for many large companies and managers who treat their employees this way. It's a reminder that such behavior is unacceptable and should lead to serious reflection

[a deputy manager](username) large capital companies are more involved in this because they know they have the power to manipulate things. Small businesses are always in fear of regulations and laws and the workforce. But bigger companies don't care about the workforce. Ever look at crowded walk-in interviews of those companies. 😄

My Manager is also very rude and deliberately making me work on unnecessary things . What should I do ? His name is Nil**i Muk**rjee . Just because he has very little knowledge in the technology we are working on he always tries to demean me every single time . He is now onsite but he doesn't deserve to be there . He is very very toxic .

The response EY has given is a proof how negligent they are towards employee well being. They just don't care.

This is infuriating. We bear the losses, and the top management just wash their hands and bring in new piece. Hopefully, the investigation that the Central Government is gonna take will bring some justice to everyone.

[gemsbond](username) Yes, Labor Ministry has taken up complaint regarding this incident , after her mother blamed 'overwork' for her demise. "A thorough investigation into allegations of unsafe and exploitative work environment is underway," said Union Minister Shobha Karandlaje.

[colonalroymustang](username) Will any action be taken against them? Work policies always adhere to labour law guidelines and registered. And if anything more happens, that manager will be suspended. That's all.

Where’s the so-called ‘we’re a family’ talk when it actually matters? They disappear when the pressure mounts. It’s the management’s fault, but they’ll never take the blame. HR just exists to send emails and organize pointless team-building exercises.😠

[primepistachio](username) I’ve been in this industry for over 15 years, and nothing changes at the top. The same fake speeches about work-life balance while they push us beyond limits. These execs know how to talk, but do they care? Nope. It’s all about profit margins and numbers.

I think it’s not solely the manager's fault. While they play a critical role, the company’s culture and policies also have a big impact.

Everyone can relate with this👇 How good are you to handle work pressure in the workplace? How will you handle any criticism in the workplace? And these questions possibilities are 8/10 to be asked in any interview. They make norms of work pressure and toxification. If you can answer this question buttery; then you're a great employee else 🥴. They want employees or pressure cookers to handle the pressure?

Employers, employees, and policymakers must work together to create a more humane and supportive work environment. I request everybody If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health issues, please reach out to a mental health professional or a crisis hotline.
