Hi everyone,
I’ve been working at a firm for the past year, where I’ve consistently performed well and successfully closed deals. While I’ve had the chance to work with some great colleagues, the management environment has been extremely challenging.
It’s a boutique firm in Dubai but registered under FZE, and I’ve observed repeated issues around contract transparency and intentional delays in commission payments. Over the past two months, I’ve been working directly with the Managing Director on few roles. Unfortunately, his management style is highly aggressive and overly micromanaged, with frequent threats over minor mistakes.
Lately, I’ve started dreading going to work. It’s created a constant sense of anxiety and self-doubt. At this point, I just want that feeling to end. To make matters more concerning, I was never issued a labour card, which means my employment may not be formally registered. I’m not on the company visa and don’t receive standard benefits.
Despite consistently putting in long hours and meeting my targets—especially in Q1—I haven’t received the commissions owed to me, even though the company generated the revenue in March 2026.
I’d really appreciate any advice on whether I should resign or wait for termination at this stage.
