Looks like the management here has perfected the 'push them until they break' system of handling employee workload. They keep adding more and more work and if one of us complains they either threaten or try to placate us with empty platitudes of how great we are at our jobs and how they need more people like us.
In the end, we either break and leave or carry even more on our backs than before while management takes all the credits and rewards. Lose-lose situation for us.
