A techie has spoken out about the alleged toxic work culture at Ernst & Young (EY) following the death of an employee, Anna Sebastian Perayil, due to alleged work pressure. He shared his wife’s experience at the firm and criticized the long working hours imposed on Indian employees, urging the government to intervene and protect workers.
The tragic death of a 26-year-old EY employee in Pune has sparked widespread outrage and calls for action against toxic work cultures in India. The young woman, Anna Sebastian Perayil, succumbed to work-related stress just four months after joining the company. Her mother’s letter to EY India Chairman Rajiv Memani highlighting the ‘glorification’ of overwork and the company’s absence at her funeral have fueled public anger and discussions around workplace well-being.
In a shocking turn of events, both Miss USA Noelia Voigt and Miss Teen USA UmaSofia Srivastava have resigned amid allegations of mismanagement, toxic work culture, and mistreatment of mental health concerns within the Miss USA Organization. The organization has faced backlash for its handling of bankruptcy proceedings and the subsequent resignations of its president and CEO. Former Miss Montana and YouTube commentator Dani Walker has highlighted the industry’s struggles and unethical practices, while ex-social media manager Claudia Michelle has raised concerns about financial troubles. Srivastava, the first Indian-origin Miss Teen USA, cited mental health concerns as a factor in her resignation, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing well-being and using one’s voice to advocate for change.
