Crazy deadlines, annoying BA and Inexperienced team: SOS!

Hey folks ! So, I'm a dev with less than 2 years of experience working for a service-based company. Our management dropped a bomb on us - a super tight deadline project that's like building a freaking Paytm for an entire country in less than a year!

The pressure is intense, and the higher-ups are always pushing us to go faster, take ownership, and deliver like superheroes. But here's the kicker - we don't have any Business Analysts (BA) on our team. Nope, we have to rely on the client's BAs for all the requirements. And let me tell you, these guys can be frustratingly clueless at times!

To make matters worse, our Scrum Master only cares about finishing sprints and doesn't give a damn about proper planning. Talk about chaos! And here's the icing on the cake - most of us devs are still fresh in the industry, with less than 2 years of experience. Oh, and did I mention that the client seems to have a personal vendetta against me?

I'm reaching out to you , for some advice on how to survive this madness. Any tips, tricks, or words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated! SOS!
