Why isn't Sunday protected also?

Im at UBS, and Sunday is a legit full blown workday now.  Emails coming in at 9am expecting responses.  Requests from MDs to set up dial-ins for internal calls that need to take place within 30 mins.  Comments sent out at 11am expected to be turned immediately (if they aren't its followed with an angry "Where are the pages!!" email)

It's like Seniors feel like since they treated us like humans on Saturday, they can be inhumane the next day.

There's not even an effort to treat it like a "lighter" workday.  I get that there may be some work that needs to be done over  the weekend, but its become absurd and offensive how I am treated on Sunday on timing.  I'm actually religious, and I've had to skip attending Church services with family on the vast majority of times this year (even on EASTER!).

It wasn't like this over my internship, thus why I accepted the offer.

I’m not sure why this got most helpful. It’s silly to do this as an analyst and get your name in the press. Think about the next firm who thinks about hiring you. Seeing such a lawsuit casts a negative look on you as to what you will sue the firm for next. It’s an unnecessary liability that many firms wouldn’t see the need of taking especially for an analyst/associate who is easily replaceable.
