Accountant ‘dies of overwork’ just 4 months after joining company

A 26-year-old woman, Anna Sebastian Perayil, died from a heart attack just four months after joining a financial company in India.

The Times of India reported that her mother, Anita Augustine, penned a letter to the organisation’s executives claiming that the company’s workload and toxic culture resulted her daughter getting overworked and subsequently dying as a result.

The contents of the letter and the allegations have gone viral as Gen Z and millennials are disillusioned by the world of work.

“Anna would return to her room utterly exhausted, sometimes collapsing on the bed without even changing her clothes, only to be bombarded with messages asking for more reports. She was putting in her best efforts, working very hard to meet the deadlines,” Augustine was quoted as saying in the letter according to Going Concern.

She went on to say that her daughter was a fighter to the core and would not give up quickly.
