Instead of 8 days off a month what should it be

I feel helpless, lost and trapped. I have complained about my excessively high workload for over six months. I took stress leave for a week because I was feeling so stressed I physically was becoming unwell. After this, nothing was done to support me until I escalated the issue to upper management. My boss took this as a personal attack and things have gotten even worse. Not only is my workload still high, I am now being criticized and micromanaged in frequent emails from my boss. This never happened (in my 5 years in this job) until the issue was raised. I truly love my job, and my fellow colleagues, but this is becoming so toxic. Upper management said HR and herself would be monitoring the issue and for me to send daily reports of my workload, but I have not received any feedback from anyone and this was mentioned…

At 3am 12000 Google employees have been let go via an automated account deactivation. No warnings, no chance to say your goodbyes. This after they make 10s of billion in quarterly profit and approved $70 billion is stock buyback just recently. Don’t be evil… really?

Learned this from multiple coworkers in my new company, nobody has used more than 1 day of vacation time in a good while because he says manpower is an issue even though its not. If you request more than 1 day it gets denied. Ive got to request 3 days off in 2 months from now and feel paranoid after what Ive heard..
