I've been working for this relatively new company financial services company for nearly 2 years and have done so much for them during this time. During this time they have screwed me out of a good salary for so long with a promise that it'll improve in time, 2 potential redundancies which I successfully fought against and a non-existant work life balance. Some of my colleagues have moved on to the other roles and are doing well for themselves while I'm still here. The workload has increased tenfold and the company is not offering any type of support even though I've been crying out for some help for a while now, their excuse is always “it's good to be busy, think of the commission” but I can't think of the commission when I can't even service every client properly.

ITS A SLAVE WAGE POSITION AND I'M TRYING TO BE THAT NPC… Does America not want anyone to work.
