Posted by parisha kumari on August 3rd, 2021

Every year, thousands of companies around the country put in their nominations for a spot on India's Top 100 Best Companies to Work list, and only crème de la crème manage to win the honor. Since it is well-established that the award does not come easy, the fact that a company manages to bag the very multiple times speaks volumes about its work ethics and employee-centric ideology. Well, much like two times in the past, India's favorite fashion destination, Myntra, has won the award for a third time now. India's most loved fashion address is a delight, not just for the shoppers but its employees as well. After all, the decency on the inside reflects on the outside too.                           

Let's take a look at the factors which helped Myntra feature on the coveted list, and that too for the third time now. After all, you would be wondering by now about the ideology, approach, and several other factors that set Myntra apart. One of the most distinguishing factors that make the Myntra life so desirable is its promise and delivery of a level playing field. The world might obsess over filters, Myntra believes in a world without filters. Myntra believes in a world that is brimming with opportunities to excel. A world without any barriers or boundaries inflicted based on an individuals' personal beliefs, ideologies, or practices. Myntra believes in offering a culture that empowers the employees to create an impact, drive positive difference, and enable betterment in their lives. Such positivity then radiates and makes everyone's lives better. Myntra employees bask in such goodness, topped with an added layer of support, care, and empathy.

Even though the employees are always aware of the inspiring workplace culture around them, recognition from a global authority like Great Place to Work® Institute boosts the morale even more. After all, the Great Place to Work® Institute has been a pioneer in inspiring, sustaining, creating, and recognizing exceptional workplaces around the globe.

Celebrating the win for Myntra, even the employees poured out praises on LinkedIn. Rajesh Narkar, VP Omni, Marketplace & International Brands at Myntra Jabong, wrote, "Here I can be a part of the environment that encourages people to express their views without inhibitions or the fear of being judged. And that level of acceptance in the company culture helps you grow in confidence in both personal and professional fronts!" Well, this is the kind of statement which perfectly sums up the workplace culture at Myntra.

It is no secret that a high-energy, fun, and vibrant work culture encourages innovation and learning while inspiring creativity, passion, and commitment. While Myntra ensures all of that, it takes an edge with its well-rounded and employee-friendly policies designed to nurture talent and offer them absolute peace of mind. Significant measures like these allow the employees to be fearless, as they know that their organization will always be there to support and strengthen them in their hours of need. Myntra's vision towards the same reflects through its people policies, programs, and practices.

Myntra's policies for its employees are among the best across industries. For instance, the Leave Policy comes with unlimited wellness leaves and family care leaves for employees, which they can avail themselves to take care of their family members. It would be suitable to say that Myntra doesn't only take its employees under its wings, but their families too. The latest Family Support Policy seems like another noteworthy mention here. The Family Support Policy extends financial and non-financial support to the families of deceased employees. For those on their motherhood journey, Myntra has a Motherhood & Beyond policy. Through its Flying Lessons program, Myntra supports women leaders at the organization through mentorship and networking. These measures and many more come together to make the employees feel loved, cared for, and valued.

Ever since the onset of the pandemic, families have become way more important for the employees, and Myntra understands that. Hence, it does not limit the support and benefits to its immediate employees but extends them to the families. Myntra has also stepped up to the challenges caused by the pandemic by adapting to newer ways of working, virtually supporting and onboarding the new joiners, creating the COVID task force team, and conducting vaccination drives for its employees and their families. The vaccination drives also covered Myntra's delivery partners.

Well, with that kind of employee-centric approach, a spot on India’s top 100 best companies to work for in the 2021 list seems much deserved.
