First off, you'll be okay. You're a good writer and seem to have a good attitude. Everything will be fine and one day, you'll look back at this and laugh.
Second, it sounds to me like you worked for assholes. What kind of shithead takes a new grad, sells him/her on mobile, drops him/her into a totally new stack and then pulls out the fire hammer because he/she wasn't meeting milestones?? This makes my blood boil and I don't even know you.
To answer your question, put it on your resume and be incredibly open about what happened. You have nothing to be ashamed of and I bet that you learned a ton.
Second that - this will be a great story in 5 years. Just try to shrug it off and go for a second job. You have more experience now.
I recommend not doing remote work as a junior. You can learn much more in-person and will get more feedback on your work.
Exactly. Just being hired once brings you a step ahead of other fresh grads.
I second the recommendation against remote work at this career stage. My first tech job was (and it still kinda is) remote with a very hands off boss and I managed to burn myself out with very little work and acquire one hell of a procrastination/anxiety problem. Got moved to part-time maintenance with the expected pay cut and I'm slowly getting better now.
Of course, my story is a worst case scenario, but it's good to know how sideways things can go.
