After a while, it beats you down, and you feel so bad that you can't leave. You kinda feel you aren't deserving of working in a respectful environment.

This is aside from other things like not feeling like you can get another job, or having bills/bonuses that you'd have to repay, etc.

It can also feel normal. Based on what you've been exposed to you might not realize how bad it is or that you're not supposed to behave that way.

Young people who started careers at Uber may not even realize how odd this is compared to a normal or 'good' company.
