Bio

Pavithra Mohan is a staff writer for Fast Company's Work Life section, specializing in labor and workplace issues examined through the lens of race and gender equity. Her reporting tackles difficult subjects including workplace discrimination in the tech industry, the disproportionate impact of corporate layoffs on vulnerable workers such as pregnant employees, and the growing movement rejecting non-disclosure agreements that silence workplace mistreatment. Mohan's work on AI and the future of work examines how companies implement AI in hiring processes, performance evaluations, and workforce planning, while also analyzing how AI has become a scapegoat for broader economic trends. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Journalism from Northwestern University and is based in New York. Her investigative approach to workplace issues combines deep reporting with an understanding of systemic inequalities, making her coverage particularly valuable for understanding how emerging technologies intersect with worker protections and corporate responsibility.
