Kunal and Aashi, corporate warriors, lift the veil on toxic work culture. They expose giants like EY (Ernst & Young) for treating employees as mere laborers. But the real heartbreak lies in Anna’s story—a brilliant 26-year-old Chartered Accountant. Her six-year struggle to earn her CA degree led her to EY in Pune. Expecting prestige and reward, she found despair instead.

Anna, once a school and college topper, faced a relentless grind. Toxicity seeped into her bones—the pressure, the skipped meals, the lost personal time. EY’s culture broke her spirit. Her health suffered, and success lost its shine. Anna’s tragedy echoes a universal truth: work environments matter. Productivity shouldn’t cost well-being.

Anna’s memory urges change. Organizations must value mental health, respect boundaries, and treat employees with dignity. Let’s honor Anna by reshaping workplaces—where success doesn’t come at the cost of lives. 🕊️
