The tragic death of Anna Sebastian Perayil, a 26-year-old Chartered Accountant from Kerala, has raised serious concerns about workplace culture and employee well-being at Ernst & Young (EY) India. Anna joined EY’s Pune office in March 2024, but just four months later, she passed away due to what her family claims was overwork and extreme stress.
Anna’s mother, Anita Augustine, wrote a heartfelt letter to EY India’s chairman, describing how her daughter was subjected to relentless work pressure, long hours, and constant demands, which led to anxiety, sleeplessness, and physical exhaustion12. Despite her deteriorating health, Anna continued to push herself, believing that hard work was the key to success.
The incident has sparked outrage and prompted an investigation by Indian authorities into the work environment at EY12. EY India has expressed deep sadness over Anna’s death and has stated that they are taking the family’s concerns seriously.
This case highlights the critical need for companies to prioritize the well-being of their employees and create a supportive and healthy work environment.
