siliconindia | | July 20194Many of us feel disconnected and discontented most of the times. With us spending majority of our time working, office depression is a reality now, especially for women who are expected to balance work and home like a pro. But such pressure brings the feeling of having no or less control, job insecurity, and irregular work hours leading to less or distracted sleep, and work-life interference. With that come workplace discrimination or harassment and values that don't align with theirs, leading to major percentage of women workforce dropouts. Despite India's GDP growing profoundly and the flute of women empowerment piping-up, the rate at which women employees, especially married employees, are quitting their job is scary. Their home loves the income, but is unwilling to let the women give-up on household chores, child care and other duties. So where lays the gap? Who will fill it? Possibly, the responsibility vests on the shoulders of the corporate houses now, who need to provide them with a secure work environment, flexible working hours and job security that will help them enjoy their personal life while also contributing to a company's success. Celebrating such companies who have designed and implemented women-centric policies and made the workplace experience truly great for them, apart from helping them build great careers is our current edition of siliconindia Magazine's `Best Workplaces for Women ­ 2019'. The featured companies have brilliantly framed policies that are not just women-centric, but in entirety include their male colleagues who play an important role in making the workplace a happy and secure environment. These companies even emphasize on career growth through expert guidance and shadow mentoring to ensure each one of them reaches the zenith of what they could achieve. We also bring to you `Best Consultants to Work for ­ 2019' ­ an issue that talks about some of the most inspiring and opportunity-filled consulting firms to start with or grow your experience and career.
