Despite the higher percentage of Indian employees actively looking for better opportunities, fewer companies cater to employees’ mental health and well-being. A handful of the companies have it boldly manifested on their portals and policies but internally the peeps behave like animals in a fast-paced, toxic work culture. Deadlines are getting deadlier, with recurring reports of employees either passing away due to overwork or simply un-aliving themselves. Add to that jingoistic entrepreneurs propagate grind culture without giving two hoots about work life balance, which only a handful speak about.
