13.DELOITTE INDIA, MANAGEMENT CONSULTING

firm promises employees challenges — whether that’s auditing the financial
records of India’s biggest companies or coaching executives on cyber risks. To

14.TECH MAHINDRA..IT AND SERVICES
The IT firm, the fifth-largest in
India, offers a work environment heavy on training — employees can rotate
jobs, take courses and participate in programs like “young CEO,” providing
early leadership opportunities. TechM works with more than 800 companies to
offer everything from networking support to consulting services. While the Indian IT industry has faced growing
challenges, the company’s managing director and CEO, CP
Gurnani, sees strategic openings: “Automation is the new game-changer. It is an
opportunity.”

117,000
Things happen: “With Murphy’s
Law always at work, a normal work day may well be interrupted,” the company

Luxurious offices: Tech Manindra
doesn’t shy away from fun. Some corporate campuses resemble resorts with
gardens, expansive gyms and even swimming pools.
15.SWIGGY…FOOD AND BEVERAGES
The rapid expansion of meal-delivery
startup Swiggy means the company is also on a hiring binge; it tells LinkedIn
it plans to increase its staff by about 30%, or 300 positions, in the next
year. The company already averages 90,000 daily orders across its eight cities
and is said to be valued at $400 million. And, while the industry is
cutthroat, Swiggy’s hoping to avoid the mistakes of its fallen rivals by
employing its own delivery personnel to offer fast, reliable service.
Number of employees: more than 1,000
A swanky home: The company’s new
corporate office includes “a fully loaded games room, stocked-up pantry, nap
rooms and a cozy little library.”
Still hungry?: Employees also
receive food cards, “which are loaded with cash each month, and can be used at
supermarkets, food outlets, kirana stores, etc.”
