Ernst Young

Our office is located at No 39 Venkatesan Street in the Tnagar area of Chennai. If you know Tnagar, you know how incredibly busy it can get, especially with all the shoppers and traffic nearby. We’re tucked away a bit, but you can still hear the horns honking from the main road. The building is older, and the stairs are a little steep, so we all get a bit of a workout every morning. Inside, it’s mostly just desks, chairs, and a lot of computers. We don’t have a fancy cooling system, just a few air conditioning units that we keep running to beat the Chennai heat. Most of our days are spent dealing with the usual office tasks. There is always someone brewing filter coffee in the back, and the smell of it usually fills the whole room by mid-morning. We don’t have a corporate dress code or anything like that. We just show up and do what needs to be done. The street outside is full of life, with vendors and people rushing around. It’s a very local vibe. We’ve become friends with the shopkeepers nearby, and we usually end up chatting with them on our way out. It is a practical place to work, and we like being right in the middle of everything. It’s not perfect, but it’s our space, and we’ve made it functional for what we need to accomplish. We just take each day as it comes and try to stay productive.
