I work as a contractor for a startup company that has a fast-paced working environment and aggressive goals. Budget is scarce, and management cannot spend on tools or new hires. To reach the proposed goals of each quarter, middle-rank bosses assign resources to multiple teams and have developers working over schedule and weekends. This is a long term situation that has affected general life-work balance and health. Things get worse as we work with other outsourcing companies that are 12 hours ahead to our time zone, arising communication issues and misunderstandings.



Reduced performance and productivity, anxiety, detachment, feeling listless, low mood, difficulty concentrating, lack of creativity, fatigue? We are all tired of this.



What is the correct way to express our disagreement with management? I don't want to be disrespectful (they are having a hard time too) but things can't follow like this much further.

P.S. I have "two" kind of bosses, one from the client side and other from my direct employer. The second one asks me to talk directly to the client.
