Hey guys, I need to rant for a minute. I’ve been working at a public sector bank for 9 months now, and honestly? I feel like we’ve all been sold a lie.

You know how it is. Our parents, relatives, everyone… they make a government bank job sound like the ultimate goal. “Secure,” “respectable,” “easy going.” I studied so hard for it, and when I got in, my family was so proud. There is no respect, neither from customer nor from management. For management we are slaves.

Let me tell you the real story.

First off, forget “easy going.” The targets are insane. They want us to sell insurance, credit cards, loans… like, I’m a banker, not a street vendor. The pressure is non-stop. Telling a rural branch to do FD of 1cr everyday is just stupidity.

And the work culture? Super toxic. The seniors act like bosses from a 90s movie.

We are so, so short-staffed. There are like three of us doing the work of six people. The line of customers never ends, the phone is always ringing. You can’t even go to the bathroom without someone getting mad.

The worst part? You don’t have a life. They act like your time means nothing. Yesterday, I had a really bad fever. I told them I need to go home early. Guess what time I actually left? 9 PM. 9 PM! And you know what they said? “We all work till 10, why are you complaining?” How is that even okay?

I go to bed every night thinking, “I should just quit.” But then you remember it’s a “government job,” and everyone tells you you’re crazy for even thinking about leaving. I worked hard for this to have a good life and not to die everyday.

So yeah, that’s the reality. It’s not respectful, it’s exhausting. It’s not secure, it’s a trap.

If you’re thinking about this career, just… be ready. It’s not what you see from the outside. It’s a nightmare

TL;DR: My government bank job has crazy sales pressure, toxic bosses who threaten you, no staff, and no respect for your time or health. I’m miserable. It’s not a dream job, it’s a nightmare
