I'm not going to name names, but companies like this that normalise bullying and overwork to the point of staff breaking are not the norm.

Thinking about my own experience and the people I know, this would describe at most 25% of jobs (most of that being overwork).

Unfortunately for some of us, it seems like every place we go is toxic. I've had nothing but terrible experiences every place I have worked as a programmer. I've been out of the game for a bit because of health issues, but I do not look forward to trying to find work again. To be honest, I feel like that person who has been in so many abusive relationships that they give up on dating all together.

Man, that's so sad. I don't even know what to say, but hope you can find happiness somewhere.
