The former contract worker said they accepted the job offer because they were “broke, unemployed and desperate”. They also confessed to write the Reddit contribution with the help of Chatgpt.

“Six days a week, sometimes every seven. 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., occasionally later. No lunch break on a few days. No holidays. No structure. If someone from the team took a break, it was okay -but if I accepted one, I would receive a call from a senior in which I asked why I am not 'committed', said the Redditor.

“A manager literally started to make hand gestures as if he was beating or beating me – responsibly. He never hit me, but intimidation was constant. The feeling of being caught, never knowing when screaming could turn into something physical … that is a trauma,” said the former employee.

“In the past I frozen at my desk, anxious, scared and helpless. It's not a job. It is psychological warfare.”

The user said on her last working day, the HR department showed “Zero Empathy”, although he prompted the worker to have a fever and asked them to return the company laptop within an hour.
