Human Resource Development
Build Teams Worth Staying For
Hiring and retention are the hardest challenges in Surat IT right now. This initiative is where HR heads, founders, and people managers share what's working — from appraisal frameworks to moonlighting policies to culture-building at 50 vs. 200 employees. Less theory, more "here's what we actually do at our company."
