I work in an Indian startup My manager is asking me to work even though i have informed him that i am not well. He is getting pressure from top management on certain deadlines to complete the project . is this a sign of a toxic boss? What should I do? ( Fyi : he is taking leaves whenever he wants). Is this a behaviour prevalent in European companies too??
