I am so overwhelmed that I can no longer bear it. I have never been a bitter person, but I am under so much stress that I am becoming very frustrated and bitter.
Just when I think that it’s finally enough and they won’t try to add more to my plate, no, they add more.
I wonder if there is any solution to this other than to leave?
Welcome to BNY.
Start the process to move on. Takes about three months of working for yourself to get your resume updated, some networking and interviews. Other firms are taking top-talent from BNYM in droves. Recruiters know this and are looking for good people like you. Get on Linked In if you aren’t already and change your setting to indicate you are open to opportunities. You will feel better once you land a new gig knowing you took control over a miserable situation. Good luck.
I've been there. Once most of the work is getting done and no one is complaining then management do not care that you are way over worked. You will not get any thanks or reward continuing like that.
Try to move team, go out on stress leave, engineer a layoff or failing those then quit. It's not worth the stress and damage to your physical and mental health.
Quit and don't regret it!
Claim insanity and check yourself into Bellevue. Log rrrm disability!
Just prioritize your work or have your boss do it. Then do the work you can do and don't worry about the things that don't get done. If your boss mentions it tell them you didn't have time. That's what I've been doing the last 8 years. The only hard part is dealing with things they don't think are a priority when you know it will make tons of work down the road if you don't get it done.
Engineer a layoff with the advice here could stain your career. Walk away with integrity
I’m sorry. You sound like you feel the way I did. You have three options.
Don’t let the place turn you bitter as I did. Life is too short and there are far better places to work than here. I’m so glad I made the cut!
No, you need to leave.
I never thought I would be happy again. My 2 years at this company was the lowest point in my life yet.
