Dream Companies to Work for 2021
Expressing her joy on this achievement, Anandi Shankar, Talent & Organization Director, HUL, South Asia, said, “Unilever is not about finding the answers to careers and talent; Unilever is about finding your purpose and then charting your unique way to the top. Your very own CEO factory.”
HUL and Google were bestowed with the award of D2C Dream Companies to Work for 2021 in the category of premier 10 B-Schools and premier 30 B-Schools, respectively. In the Engineering space, Google remained the dream employer, leading the way alongside Microsoft and Amazon.
Getting down to the brass tacks, Dare2Compete Employer Branding Report 2021 shed light on some startling revelations across multiple domains.
BCG won the day and grabbed first place amongst the most desirable Consulting companies, followed by McKinsey and Bain & Company in premier 10 B-Schools. It came as no surprise that the famous MBB trio – McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, and Bain & Company grabbed the first three places across premier 30 B-Schools.
In the Banking and Finance sector, Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase & Co. retained their crowns, in the first and second places respectively, across B-Schools. HUL took home the winning trophy in the desirable FMCG/Beverage companies space. ITC gained the second spot followed by P&G, Nestle, and Coca-Cola in that order across B-Schools.
Tata Sons reigned the General Management domain followed by Aditya Birla Group (ABG), Mahindra, and Reliance across Premier 10 B-Schools. In another category of premier 30 B-Schools, the order changed to TATA Sons, Reliance, ABG, and then Mahindra.
On adding one more feather in its cap, Poornima Pandey, VP Group HR, TATA Sons, said, “The tagline of our people studio is ‘Your voice is our favourite sound’. Each day, everyday , we try to listen to what our people want to do in terms of their learning, growth, career, progress and even fun; and we put our craft to their service. We believe that ‘Our people’ is far more encompassing a construct than talent/ leadership etc which at the end of the day are sometimes more of a judgement or a tag. The result of this approach has been that if we pick up the beats of what our people are saying, our offerings will sit well and make an impact.”
Maintaining the legacy of their winning streak Amazon, Flipkart, and Google once again shone as the top 3 Desirable New-Age Recruiters/ Tech-Companies/Startups Technology Companies where students would like to work across B-Schools (as Dream Companies to Work for 2021).

Two competitions from L’Oréal – L’Oréal Brandstorm & L’Oréal Sustainability Challenge, also made it in the TOP 20 D2C Prestigious B-School Competitions 2021 (Category – Premier 10 B-Schools).
