To recall, the death of Anna Sebastian Perayil, a 26-year-old Chartered Accountant at EY in Pune, has once again brought the spotlight on the diminishing work-life balance in the lives of many corporate employees. Anna Sebastian Perayil, the EY Pune CA from Kerala, lost her life, with her mother alleging that it was due to office stress and overwork.
