How to Build a Great Place to Work:
Hard Aspects:
• Framework should be built to review the talent and provide compensation accordingly. Training for the
underperformer and promotion/ recognition for the right talents followed this.
• Taking care of the daily needs(conveyance, food) of the employees.
• Special attention to the pregnant employees/ mothers.
• Build employee centric programs like "Intuit Again", "Intuit Ability Program", 5% NPS scheme etc.

Soft Aspects:
• The employees identified as role models should be awarded.
• A culture of “Listening” needs to be incorporated in the company.
• The leaders should be approachable for the employees.
• Employees should be given an option to showcase their issues/grievances, which should be addressed properly.
• Leaders should have an eagerness to learn. Learning can be from anyone at any level of the organization.
• Leaders should let employees to take decisions, thus increasing the sense of responsibility among them.

According to us, to become the best place to work, a company should give importance to both the Hard
and the Soft Aspects.
