Amid growing discussions around work-life balance, erratic schedules and employee well-being, Farmley has announced a week-long Diwali break for all employees, from October 20 to 26.

It’s about laughter echoing louder than Gmail pings, diyas glowing brighter than laptop screens, and being fully present (not just “online”)."
