‘What action will EY take?’: Anna Sebastian’s father speaks to TNM
“I do not think Ernst & Young offers any support for newcomers, even though they say they do,” said Sebastian Perayil, the father of Anna Sebastian Perayil, the 26-year-old chartered accountant working from Kochi who tragically died in Pune. Anna’s father was speaking to TNM after four representatives from Ernst & Young Pune visited their home on Thursday, September 19.
The visit of EY representatives, including two partners, an HR manager, and a senior manager, came two months after Anna died in Pune on July 20. It was made after a letter her mother Anita Augustine wrote to company chairman Rajiv Memani gathered national interest in the last few days. The letter alleged that it was due to the overwhelming work pressure she faced that Anna died.
