Barclays culture is really good, everyone I came across in my team or even at the floor is very kind and helpful. It is one of the best companies to stay for a long time. It should be one or two people downgrading the image of the whole organisation.
You should have a skip level meeting and speak everything in your mind upfront.

I have heard many bad reviews here about Barclays work culture where managers are exploiting employees

I have been with Barclays for 4 years under 4 managers .
But haven’t encountered anything such , I would say it’s not the organisation but the people which are to be pinpointed.

I would say organisation policies are very supportive, please have skip level talks.
Try for some other team through ijp.

It’s all about few individual person , which will be present in every organisation.

Have a skip level meeting with your senior manager.
As soon as you complete 1 year, try changing your team asap via IJB if it still doesn't get resolved.
Try to keep all conversations documented over email, as much as possible. Any overload /over burden, highlight it over as email as well.

These things might matter at a later stage. All the best, you will surely get out of this mess
