1. TRULY, this company is much (ONE MUCH, not TWO) sicker than I realized when I first began working (THERE [the Company]) in 1980.
2. This sentence does not say what #1 and #3 say. "than what it was realized" is not good (or readable) English.
3. Remove the second "much" and the "what" in front of "I realized" and place a "There" after the word "working".

"TRULY" is misspelled in each sentence, and is not really needed to communicate your ideas. The best way to say this sentence and convey your meaning would be, "This company is sick, much sicker than when I first started working here in 1980."

Of course, English is incredibly nuanced. By saying the company is sicker than when you started there, you're admitting the company WAS sick when you started there, just not as sick as it has now become. It also implies you have, over the course of 26 years, seen the company grow steadily sicker while you stood by and did nothing, but judge it.

Doing a letter of resignation?

2 & 3 suck, don't make sense.

Go with 1, and make it Truly, this company is much more sicker than I realized it was, when I started working here in 1980.

First of all, "truely" is not a word. It is spelled "truly."

I would say, "Truly, this company is much sicker than I realized it was when I first began working here in 1980."

Truly, this company is far more sick than I realized when I first began working in 1980.

That's how I would write it.

Are you writing a letter of resignation? Sounds like it's overdue!

Good luck!
