Dream Job Layoff? This company doesn’t let employee work beyond their shift, Check Viral LinkedIn Post
Have you ever come across a company issuing a warning to make sure you go home and lock your desktop after work hours? Believe it or not, one company has already put this into practice.
An IT business company with headquarters in Indore, Madhya Pradesh automatically turned off staff members’ computers if they work past their shift timings. According to a viral LinkedIn post shared by Tanvi Khandelwal, HR at SoftGrid Computers revealed that her company supports a flexible and enjoyable work environment.
She shared a post which had the desktop screen in front of her and it had texts written over it saying “Warning!!! Your Shift Time Is Over”. “The office system will shut down in 10 minutes”. “PLEASE GO HOME.” Noting that the company doesn’t let the employe work after hours, she also mentioned about her excitement of working at the company and that employees don’t need any special motivation to enjoy their workdays.
Not just this, the employees don’t even have to answer calls and emails outside work hours. “No more calls and mails outside of business hours. Isn’t this fantastic? So, I think if you are working in this type of culture, you do not need any Monday Motivation or Fun Friday to improve your mood!” she added.

This is the reality of our office !! SoftGrid Computers
The viral LinkedIn post was swamped with comments with several users hailing the IT company’s work environment. One of the users wrote, “I wish this Working Atmosphere prevails in Each and Every Company…inspite of so many Social Awareness Articles on ‘Health, Well Being and Happiness’ of Employees YET, this is ONLY on Paper, Nothing Constructively Implemented by Employers…Employees are Stressed day in and day out which gradually leads to Health and Mental issues and Imbalance in Personal Lifes’…High Time Employers Get that ‘Awakening Call of Stressfree, Positive Working Environment.”
Some users found it controversial and wrote, “Life is not 9-5, and the world is 24/7. In the real world, you have to adapt, sometimes working late but starting later. Maybe take a day off when it is not busy but make up the time working 8 to 8 on busy days. I was developing with a glass of wine in my hands, working until 1 am in the morning, getting immersed in what I was doing on a Saturday night. I think enjoying your job and what you do is another bonus without the stress of mandatory targets. (Great thing I like being virtually self-employed).”
