> Burnout caused by chronic stress is widespread

We are making employees lives miserable to reduce the need of planning for companies. Quite often management lacks the emotional maturity needed in their positions that hides normal mistakes that are part of the job, push for unrealistic schedules and sometimes even get into bulling as a way of getting what they want.

8 hours plus commute time, that has increased as cities have grown, does not allow people to have time to attend their families, their own finances and have time to relax.

When it comes to human management in companies we are closer to the middle ages than to the current knowledge about human nature.
