WTF yes they are. Only an utterly dysfunctional corporate culture would tolerate putting people under that amount of stress. Ignoring "be a decent human being"

Ignoring "be a decent human being" for a moment, and only looking at the money (because this is one way to communicate with dysfunctional corps): companies have a duty of care to protect their staff from harm, and this includes mental distress. By not addressing the abuse the company is leaving itself open to costly legal action.
- belval 6y agoTo be clear, I 200% agree with you (if there is such a thing), but it is still a normal state of affairs in multiple fields. I never personally lived it, but a few people close to me worked in healthcare and that kind of "brings you to tear" workplace abuse is downright common. Demeaning comments and forced overtime are a weekly if not daily occurrence. Should they accept it? I guess not, but once it's normalized they partake as well and it doesn't change.
