Quitting After Less Than a Year

Started a new job in May. I’m working 50 hours a week and feel like I’m drowning most days. On top of being constantly stressed out, a couple of comments have been made lately that are making me want to jump ship. My coworkers talk about needing to work nights and weekends to make up for when they take a day or two of PTO. And then my boss mentioned that we get a paid holiday off coming up but “if you feel like you need to work at least half a day then you should.” It’s a no from me.
