“I can't stand work at all. Everyday I have no motivation to continue on at work and just want to quit. However, I'm tied to making money for my family,” the Blind user revealed. He explained that he felt stuck and could not quit as he had to make money for his family.

The Meta employee further revealed that his current total compensation stands at $370,000 ( ₹3.2 crore approximately).
