We should thank this mother. She is like a mother to all of the Corporate employees.
It's not only overwork..there are so much politics in office just to entertain manager,senior ,head and rest of all employees..all of them harassing,mentally torturing, any single employee who is mostly either have no experience,or freshers ..all these happens to please either manager or senior manager or head to create intimidating environment,to satisfy their ego frustration etc and in most of the cases these managers,senior managers or head any one of them belong south india or state like karnataka,tamilnadu,Kerala,gujrat then all these have to have in company and those who don't want to participate in harassing,bulleying then will thrown out of the company..and all these things happen to satify the ego,frustration and create intimidating factor but they will call it we disciplining her or him so it's like 100 of PPL harassing bulleying any oner person who is fresher
Indeed, she came forward for us. Only a mother would come forward in such situations.
@@tensionfree494 When supervisors at two level aligns against you, it is very difficult.
What it means is that, if your manager is against you, ensure that you are in good terms with his manager.
We lost a Brilliant CA girl because of those bloody managers of EY
I thought sudha murthi was the mother of all 17 hour corporate employees
90 days Notice period should also be removed
Yes, notice period is a scam to get a replacement. Your EPF and Gratuity payouts are delayed because of this slave seller policy
Why?
No future emplyer will wait for 90 days to hire you.@stalwarts17
Lol..I wonder there are people joining this company with a 90 days notice period..when will they realize there are billions of other companies in this world😢
Pls list down companies with shorter np @@philipe222
The leadership should take full responsibility and render resignation ASAP
Tum saala log harami juti ke niche rahega.....dugna lagaan bharega 🤣🤣
Nice joke, this is India not europe.
Here if you hit someone with luxury car and kill them you get bail after writing 300 words essay.
And you are expecting leadership to resign just cuz one of their employee died out of workload.
That would take ages to happen when Indians finally give importance to human life.

South Indians are more helpful than others @@tensionfree494
Not leadership, but exploiter in chief.
Why don't you keep this rules in Europe, they will put company head in jail
Exactly what I'm saying. Europe has several strong labour unions as well. A company wouldn't dare to do this slavery in Europe, and employees punch out right on time. In Europe, if you had to work more you'll be paid overtime, if you join on-call at night you'll have the next day off. Those who have European clients probably know this already
Cuz europeans don't act like slaves, they raise voice, they give importance to work life balance.
In India, british left indians with slavery mindset. White is superior is instilled in indians brain.
Indian education system teach that working hard is important, but no one teach that life is also important.
Since they are kid they get into burden of studying.
Take multiple classes. Many student in kota suic!de cause of pressure, but no one cares.
These MNC sees it as opportunity and they hit jackpot getting billions of slaves who learned to work hard since they were kid.
They can pay them penny and make them work to increase companies profit.
I can confirm that.@@badbad-cat
Our govt will take electoral bonds and allow even 24hr work permit..
all because they are colonisers and we are still colonised
GenZ is by far the most sensible and fearless of all generations. God bless them. If there is any hope for change for the magnitude of stupidity and submissiveness in our socitety, it rests with them.
Yup. I don’t fear saying f*ck you to management when they ask me to work on weekends. I don’t care if I get fired.
Ey manager shud be jailed for 20. Years
😢
Government should penalise the company and make the rule that india Head and board members will be jailed if it happens again.
HR should be held responsible first..than the CEO..
HR now a days acts as intelligence agencies and not on the side of employees.
@@jadhavketan5982 they are good for happy bday reminders.. hiring and exit interviews.. most places.
government take heavy taxes from salaried person and give free to votebank ,for better livelihood l youth have to run run run disturbing their work life balance
Why single out EY, Indian IT MNC promotes the same culture with minimum wage? Check out the graduate hire program at TCS, Wipro and Infosys, 5 years bonded Labour and their salary is 3 - 5 days of customer billing. Rest 15 days customer billing is pocketed by leadership?
Graduate hire program is real slavery.
3 month notice period bondange
They pay us nuts 😢
Big 4's culture by far is the worst. I have friends who have logged in friday and logged out on Monday late night. They won't give you leaves for anything without having to beg again and again..
@@irmeenfatima9887 Indian MNC match it and go beyond.
Mr. Narayana Murthy has left the building...
Chutta Moorti talking out of this 100 year old arse...😂
Everyone should mail on Sudha Murthy Rajyasabha email ID and demand apology from Rajyasabha floor.
I don't want viksit bharat at this cost.
You only want khata khat bharat?
@@mnd3607 dude it's not always about politics 😐 Indians need proper work life balance. what's the point if corporates are torturing majority of the Indians. Is that really how we want our country?
Yea, It seems that we are trying to emulate China by over working our people.
If we put a limit on the work hours, the companies would be forced to hire more people and that will reduce unemployment also.
@@badbad-cat So tell that to OP...It's not about any party yet he is doing that. Corporates have been exploiting us since ages cause of population and availability of cheap workforce. 🙄
In Accenture i am working from 4years here we work 12 hours 😢many times, instead of 9hours, also we support Saturday and Sunday and take holiday on other day. This company doesn’t give respect to your work, along with that no proper promotion or hike will be given. Sudden changes in shifts without proper pre notifications from TL. Our HR and Management are very cruel. Now a days working in corporate is like playing Bigboss, don’t know when they will eliminate you.
firstly its individual not company....the company word came to escape from all legal obligation by the same person....u say company doesn't give respect rather its ur TL....same management comes to knees when a notice from labour depart reaches HR
Dude Accenture is not the only company in this world..quit and join another company that treat you well.
Tum saala log harami juti ke niche rahega.....dugna lagaan bharega 🤣🤣
The IT field is badly in need of good labour unions. Then only employees would have the leverage to negotiate with billion dollar management. Unity is strength. Soon there'll be a huge disruption by AI and workers will be replaced. Without labour unions to negotiate techies would be brutally discarded
U r working in US shift.
PR TEAM OF EY ACTIVATED SUCCESFULLY
Manager will watch cricket , gamble, finish his personal work. Then will deligate work to subordinates. By the time office time will be over and will have to work overtime, sat and sun also to finish it. One way you can calling it bullying
just say you can't as it after work hours. send email as artifact. show your login times and what you did in that time. and what work was allocated.
Tum saala log harami juti ke niche rahega.....dugna lagaan bharega 🤣🤣
@@sharathvasudevThey would simply fire you under some made-up excuse and hire someone who will take their BS. Our population is so large..some sucker will replace you in no time!
These higher management people treat staff as a dustbin.
I worked in EY as well and every employee, Juniors, complained of never ending work and unacheivable deadlines.
Shit
Unprofessional way of management
EY must be brought under the government surveillance to make sure that the working hours should be according to the labour law and the employees must be paid for overtime working hours.
Private Employees are slave of corporate world... Government should think about private employee.. There is no rule follow in private company..
privateCORPORATES fund the political party.. the end!
Who will speak up against his/her boss? While it is much easier to sometimes say that you should speak up against toxic work culture, those who are in the corporate world may agree that it is not easy. How many can say NO to their bosses? How many can say that I won't work on a Sunday when asked for an urgent deliverable?
Secondly, even if someone dares to do that, whom will they complain to? Which HR has the power, or even intent, to take corrective actions against business leaders and seniors to address the issue of toxic work culture?
Not only will this take systemic change in our work environments, but a HUGE CULTURAL CHANGE. expecting juniors to speak up just WON'T WORK.
Same situation in Kpmg too..😢
Genpact tooo
Word...apologize is enough to erase what has happened....😢 and the wonderful HR consultancy is just a puppet in the hands of corporate strategy. Self care is easy to say...but the peer pressure will keep them dumb.
Draw attention to workplace bullying. It exists. There is pressure to perform as well as be ACCEPTED. Sometimes the work may be good but if jealousy exists then the senior management should be aware of unique capabilities of their employees as well as nature of some who have been with the company for longer and have a dominating attitude towards newcomers.
Exactly, i have seen some employees in audit section getting stressed due to unnecessary harassment by their seniors
Tum saala log harami juti ke niche rahega.....dugna lagaan bharega 🤣🤣
Currently I am facing it. My previous bosses and dept were great. They supported me and helped me to grow in the organization. I become more courageous year by year. I ventured in new projects and did great. But luck ran out this time!! I decided to join our risk control team. My previous boss approved my movement. Now my life has become hell. Neither I am getting accepted nor I am trusted. I endure verbal abuse everyday. My previous boss told me none can harm me till the time he is there but in middle of the year I cannot go back to my previous dept. Hence I am enduring abuse..
I've had a female colleague who had a history of instigating personal relationships with her previous bosses to get ahead. Boy did she make my life hell, chased our current boss for months together to take her out for dinner and valentines day etc and then would make it sound like he was after her. I took her side stupidly and got ostracized. They both became an unofficial pair at work. And I was yelled at for wanting any inputs at work. I has no idea women like this exist. It never crossed my mind to do anything but protect her as she was slightly younger , till it was too late. She had also cut off her mom, and although just few years older, I wanted to take care of her. In 6 months I went from being the office favorite who everyone was smitten by to a non entity. Systematically worked on multiple fronts to eliminate her competition.
Do not worry. If U (EY) continue with such work culture, U'll have many more such opportunities, though this may sound shocking. Unfortunately, the people in the (WEST) who boast of scientific temperament in every sphere in their working, fail to realise that HUMAN HAPPINESS , at individual level as well, needs to be at the centre of all our actions.
There have been many deaths...its just now it got noticed
Under rated comment. There have Definitely been strokes, heart attacks etc if not instant death. But ppl just accept and move on. This is how corporates are making their blood money. On top of that shameless govts tax employees more than the corporate. Really a revolution will come at this rate.
Even the environment of Indian companies is also hell 😢
Incident happened inside office premises. If it were in home, company wouldn't be directly accused. So, remote work should come back.
Pressure of AI taking jobs, put the employees in fear of losing jobs. They are forced to accept unethical, unrealistic expectations of the companies due to that. In the name of productivity, it becomes harassment and mental torture. This culture must stop and remote work should return.
Pull up Narayan Murthy also. He ignited the fire. Make him also work like a slave and give him only a salary of 30k per month. 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂
Like your comment bro
His comment was wrong , He had to talk about it again and take his word back
This is common in all service based companies
EY has to be sued & huge compensation to be given to deceased's mother. Other companies should learn lesson from this.
I can bet a million bucks that the chairman did not even bother to read the letter sent by employees mother
I’m an ex employee of EY, I have faced similar problem
Leadership should be counted responsible. When they can take all the credits for success they should also be accounted if something fail rather than putting it on employee's shoulder
just imagine how badly she must be hated around her team that even on death nobody came
She was for less than 4 months as per reports and died of a cardiac arrest
Management didn't give the staff time out to attend funeral, as funeral was held in Kerala.
They didn't even bother to hold a memorial service in the office. No time for that too. Everyone has to finish their piles of work.
unless 8 hour work in office and no work from home concept by using your laptop nothing is going to change on the ground
Dream job became nightmare.
Yes. Please do it. Please bring about a change in the work culture of corporate life. It will benefit the employees. Health has to be given priority to. Work timings has to be implemented stringently. And no overtime work. Mental health cannot be compromised. It has to be given priority
The IT field is badly in need of good labour unions. Then only employees would have the leverage to negotiate with billion dollar management. Unity is strength. Soon there'll be a huge disruption by AI and workers will be replaced. Without labour unions to negotiate techies would be brutally discarded
EY management is shedding crocodile tears now by regretting staff absence in her funeral.
It is not limited to put sector. Same condition exist in public sector banks for officer cadre.
It sounds as good as "we'll stay in touch" when an employee leaves
Justice to be given to all Employees.......
Yes but don't miss Central Jail
Something More than debate should be done these senior leadership reap all the benefits.
It's not only overwork..there are so much politics in office just to entertain manager,senior ,head and rest of all employees..all of them harassing,mentally torturing, any single employee who is mostly either have no experience,or freshers ..all these happens to please either manager or senior manager or head to create intimidating environment,to satisfy their ego frustration etc and in most of the cases these managers,senior managers or head any one of them belong south india or state like karnataka,tamilnadu,Kerala,gujrat then all these have to have in company and those who don't want to participate in harassing,bulleying then will thrown out of the company..and all these things happen to satify the ego,frustration and create intimidating factor but they will call it we disciplining her or him so it's like 100 of PPL harassing bulleying any oner person who is fresher
All of the online jobs are same like that 😢😢😢😢
Happy to see something exposing ey's overwork toxic culture
Bring necessary laws , otherwise it will be very dangerous
All this hardwork, success thru performance starts from play school,school,college and then gets into work places....
Nip it in the bud...
Education is to be put together making Happiness as success quotient
When will we have less hours shift like 4 to 6 hrs even if with less salary and morning shifts..people have less choices to choose work per their personal family requirements..it should be improved. People are moving abroad but everything is getting normalized
Developing countries facing this music😢😢😢
Yoga etc will not help in toxic relationship
Just follow the EU & USA,
35-38 HOURS PER WEEK WORK 🙏
If they just filed a case, police would not have considered to even look at it. But, with outrage in social media police are taking seriously (off course due to pressure from their higher ups to keep their image)
Top management might not be the reason for this harrasment or worst work culture managers or team leaders of certain departments or certain team is the reason for giving stress and over work to the employees; companies or authority need to take action against them for harrasment or cruelty.
Remember Narayan Murthy?
India needs a law that prohibits work call after clocking off.
Dirty corporate culture will glorify long work hours. But being a CA topper didn't this girl have any brains to see how her mental and physical health was getting affected adversely ?
Let's say the dead girl was brainless on this.
But what about her parents? Didn't they have any observation on how exhausted their child was and even counsel her? If time comes they should have told her to kick that job and look for work elsewhere in a better work atmosphere. This would have at least kept her alive.
As for the solution called government intervention will not be effective since high chances are there that they may be bribed. Only if all employees discuss and learn to say no to unrealistic deadlines, some positive changes will come
These young kids need to understand
Work long and hard to achieve more
I proudly work 14 hrs every day x 6 days a week😊
Wtf
Stfu let people live!
Even in TCS BPO's management has become so toxic that employees are leaving company without securing a job in market, for them it's unbearable
Work allocated is disproportionate to the salary paid.
E&Y is still young and green, regret has come a tad bit too late for being seen as sincere.
We say Turnover corporate culture, but our Corporates and Government says work 14 hours and give more taxes...
Any discussion on overwork and work related stress without discussing the condition of junior doctors in hospitals is meaningless
Govt. should make some policy related to corporate employees.
Where is great Narayana Murthy advocating 70 -80 hours of work and overwork during weekends
What if his own son and daughter need to face this
.Hypocrisy Unlimited 😡
Employees are not given choice to say no most of the times as they can lose their job eventually. It's not easy to set boundaries.
Abolish 90 days notice period first. It's against the labour law and the constitution of India.
Let's pretend that a probe where one party is a multi billion dollar company and the other is a dead girl is going to be fair.
I guess this is an eye opening situation to all corporates on providing help to the employees with sufficient awareness training to managers employees hr and each individual with sufficient counciling. Very sad to hear
Culturally it has to be shamed if an individual or companies take long working hours as something to boast of .
Boycott the long hours and use social media to shame the manager and company name encouraging long working hours
It has been happened with many people, just came in media now. Summeerized comments from different videos on youtube
* Everyone should understand we all are human and should treat each other with humanity.
* nightmares, health & Sleep issues are common things for employees who spend most of their time in front of screen due to workload.
* failure of Indian government who knows to collect taxes but will never thinks of employees life.
* Many of us do cry alone because there is no way to resist the things the way they are.
* Parents/teachers/any academic syllabus does teach kids to be successful at academics and profession but never teach how to deal with setbacks, negative phase in life, and this is the outcome. Society's conditioning is very brutal and painful.
* Just like employee salaries are fixed we don't even get a single penny extra like that work hours should also be fixed.
Corporate are the new East India Company .. we need freedom
Deloitte is also the same. Treating it's employees like slaves.
Stop working for EY 😢. No need to work for irresponsible corporate.
It's understandable that the government cannot create public sector jobs for all, but they could atleast regulate the private sector, this is discrimination from our own Maibap
The fate of people working in India is such that , even the news person on this video would have overworked the same day as the news was telecasted 😢 we can only talk ..
There is a direct correlation Mr.Amit, why the appraisal discussions go to the point asking employees "What extra have you done?" Orgs are typical capitalists who only care about revenue and margins "in India".
In india this is reality
We dont have enogh industries and enterprenuers to provide
Enogh jobs to indians
And due to huge competition we always constantly have fear of losing the job
As a result we bear this toxic work culture and many more to save our job
Its not about EY , its about employees of whole economy
What action the chairman taken when he get the mail regarding the death? When he taken action? Did he taken action before it became the news? If not, to where employees can raise their issue? And chairman of the company also a reason, he should change the position
Saddened .. due to leadership failure ( bad, greedy and cunning thinking or strategy ) such an incident happens.
People don't surrender assuming hardwork and perseverance are key to success but slowly either they are becoming psycho where wrong acts are considered or shown as rights or one ended up brutally .. क्षमा प्रार्थी
ओम शांति
🙏
In USA new graduates come prepared to Wall Street and Consulting company jos for working 80hrs per week. Then they work even harder so that they can get through probation period. Then they work even harder and longer to keep their full time jobs. Then they have to work even harder to get promotions and get ahead. If us Indians cannot put in such stupidly hard effort to get that big income Then we should avoid these type of jobs, it is not for us. You will be better off opening a small business to be wealthy and have a comfortable great life in India.
Please send him jail immediatly .. fine on company and send him jail immediatly
Work pressure, nepotism and favouritism are in corporate environments/private companies is very common phenomenon and not a new thing. Education institutes/colleges should give training for STRESS MANAGEMENT and MENTAL HEALTH apart from curriculum. Employees mental health as well as physical health are important for work life balance. 99% Employers are focusing on finance capital and they never focus on human capital because there is abundance of unemployed educated persons in India. Labour Laws are just on paper and theory not in practice. Government should do safety measures for employee’s working hours, conditions and stringent in the enforcement of our existing labour laws.
While it is regrettable that the young person had died, she always had the option of quitting EY and do something else, especially when she has finished CA. The problem here is her own misplaced idea that her success somehow is tied to her performance in EY. Having said that, I heard EY is full of psychopaths and no sane person should consider joining this firm.
EY should be heavily fined, India head should spend some time in Jail
The issue is we do not get paid hourly ,If you clock in extra hours and at least the money compensates for it most people will happily clock in extra hours in a country like India but if its the same salary plus abuse this is where the problem starts
Now where is Narendra modi,Narayan murthi and Kangana Ranaut who wants people to work for 18 hours???…..will they come forward and condemn their 18 hours work suggestion
How can the manager miss a funeral... He or she did not get leave?
No companies cares about employees
This Shameless CEO is just dropping crocodile tears . Such a drama of showing true remorse etc etc.
Perusahaan tempat sy bekerja pernah diaudit oleh EY
YA. mereka memang bekerja sampai malam2, over time, itu jh berimbas kepada pihak yang diaudit karena mrm.meminta data macam2 dan ada perdebagan dimana mrk masih menggunakan standar lama dimana perusahaan kami telah mengalami perkembahan IT dsn sdh banyak relaxsasi.
Standar yg dipakai oleh EY tsb sdh tdk up to date namun kami harus menuruti karena terkait penilaian dlm versi mrk.
Sangat merepotkan kami seperti berjalan mundur ke masa 2 th yll
Apology came after 4 months when the issue got blowed up.
Everyday PSB bankers are doing suicide due to tormenting work pressure and staff shortage. Almost 7 bank controlling authorities are enjoying 5 day week but not bankers.
Which bank are u working
Toxic Management exists in most of the IT companies where lack of management experience, expertise, high level technical knowledge missing in many areas. Most of them are expert in nasty internal company politics, oiling and making happy their boss.
Recently it seems in Karnataka it was suggested the IT proffessionals to work for 18 hrs a day or So - what do you say abt this -
Head should go to jail.Boycott this toxic company
Will the govt ever take any action?
Watching this while working on Saturday from 9 am till now: its 4:19 pm
What kind of productivity are these people targetting? Set realistic targets based on the capabilities of the organisation.
I pity those who think that there's gonna be a change
EY shame lessly admitting over working
Ernsten Young CEO, work did not kill her. We: Yes overwork killed her. I'm glad I made my switch abroad in time or India would have killed me too.
It's written in JD able to work under stress instead of taking measures to mitigate stress
