  • Definition

    What is the ESOP programme?

  • Employee stock ownership plan, or ESOP is an employee plan that gives a company's employees a purchase (stock options) interest in the business. In an ESOP program, businesses provide their workers with stock control, mostly at no up-front charge to the workers.

  • Introduction

    Companies trying to check attrition through perks

    Companies trying to check attrition through perks
  • Companies give ESOP benefits because the talent pool is finite and there is a need for more people amid fast development to expand market share aggressively.

    Besides ESOPs, startups are giving rewards such as cash perks and gifts like bikes and washing machines.

    Many companies have curtailed the "annual appraisal cycles to quarterly or half yearly."
