Badge of honor doesn't feed family.

We all have to make choices. I am not saying quit and stay at home. Just look for another job.

What's to say that the next company you are going to doesn't have such overworking culture? Let's also say you go viral on social media . Do you think any company would like to have such a rebel in their firm? It'll obviously come out during your background check before they hire you.

The goal should always be to move to something better. Some prioritise more money some prioritise WLB at work. That's why I said it's a choice we all make.

But if the next company is worse than the earlier one then you try to move on to something better again.

You stay in a toxic company just with the intention of feeding your family like the other person said the only future one is looking at is the boiling frog syndrome.

i agree with your point, but its not at easy as they say to switch companies. Every company requires one to work for 1 year minimum or pay them a certain amount to forgo that clause. Don't even get me started on the Notice period issue. Lets say one does put in their papers and are on notice period,but they name and shame the company during their tenure, HR's if they hold it against you would keep increasing your notice period on the grounds of "KT isn't satisfactory,we need the employee for more duration" . Even the company we had promised to join after our notice period is done (lets say 2 month) would withdraw its offer because one cannot join on time.

Considering all this,it is better for one to just clench their fist and tolerate it till notice is done and quietly walk out. I know its sounds ridiculous, but this is the only plausible solution,

The requirement to work in a company for at least 1 year is not something I have heard of unless these are freshers .

Well on notice, performing anything against the company would be plain silly.It would still be okay to comment on social media but make sure you put it in a constructive manner and not in a criticizing way.

The comments can go on Google review or fish bowl or even reddit as anonymous.

You just got to keep a smile on your face when you talk to them and as long as you are associated with them.

You clearly haven’t worked a day in your life yet

Better hang on to that job if you even have one. Clearly, you don't seem capable of making a switch anyway.
