REA India Named 4th Best Place to Work in Asia

India's largest full-stack PropTech company REA India, which owns and operates real estate portals Housing.com, PropTiger.com, and Makaan.com, has been awarded 4th place in the Best Workplaces in Asia list by the Great Place to Work Institute.

REA India took 4th place in the large workplaces category and has now been named on the list for three consecutive years.

It also took 3rd place in the 100 Best Companies To Work For in India study by the same institution earlier this year.

Other awards include being named in India's Top 50 Workplaces in Building a Culture of Innovation as well as being named in the Retail category.

Dhruv Agarwala, CEO at REA India, said:

"At REA India, we firmly believe that our people are the driving force behind our success. Our people-first culture thrives on innovation freedom, collaboration, investment in employee success and well-being, and an enabling environment for an impactful contribution.

"As a part of the REA Group, we take immense pride in the contributions we make to the ever-evolving PropTech industry, and this recognition further cements our position as a leader shaping the future of the real estate sector."

REA India joins OnTheMarket as being a great place to work—the UK challenger was named in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2023.

On the other end of the spectrum, U.S. giant Costar made plenty of headlines in 2022 with more than one allegation of unprofessional behaviour, including claims that CEO Andy Florance brandished a semi-automatic gun on a business call! A social media spat ensued, with rumours that CoStar employees had been fired for interacting with an Instagram account that made less than flattering claims about the portal.
