Anna’s mother, Anita Augustine, has bravely taken to pen and paper to express her heartache in a poignant letter addressed to the company’s executives.

Anita’s haunting words paint a vivid picture of Anna’s grueling daily struggles.
She recalls her daughter returning home each night utterly drained, often collapsing into bed still in her work clothes, too exhausted to even change. “She was inundated with messages, tirelessly asked for more reports,” Anita wrote, capturing the relentless pressures Anna faced. Despite the overwhelming burden and her family’s pleas for her to consider quitting, Anna remained resolute in her ambition, driven by a desire to grow and learn.
The letter exposes a deeper, systemic issue within the company—one that exploited Anna’s inexperience, leaving her saddled with countless tasks that felt impossible to manage. “This isn’t just a matter of individual managers.
It’s a culture of unyielding demands and unattainable expectations that costs us the life of a vibrant young woman with so much ahead of her,” Anita lamented, her heart heavy with sorrow.
