Opportunities are wide open for everyone at ManageEngine without any bias

Rajalakshmi Srinivasan, director of product management at Site 24x7 - ManageEngine

“From hiring to training talent, our policies and philosophies are unique. We respect and nurture individuals' capabilities, and the company culture plays a major role in retaining the best talent. In the IT industry, new technologies are always emerging, and it's important to provide a platform to upskill individuals. In that sense, our company provides plenty of room for upskilling and the freedom to experiment with new technologies.

Individuals are trusted, so they take ownership and are responsible for their work. The sense of job satisfaction derived from such an environment goes a long way in creating a sustainable path for the best talent.

Women play an equal role in our organisation, and opportunities are wide open without any bias. However, women's needs are a little different from men's. The open and inclusive culture of the organisation helps women transition from team members to individual contributors, and vice versa, seamlessly, helping them match their male counterparts in their skills and careers. Motivation and guidance from upper management and other senior mentors encourage women to take up senior roles.

Bridging the imbalance is an ongoing journey. Though we've progressed to some extent, there's still a lot of room for improvement. The effort has to come from both sides.”
