There are two aspects to your query:
1.       Working in a bank
2.       Abusive husband
 
Generally, jobs in banks involve dealing in interest and are, thus, impermissible.  Any income earned from such will be harām.  Imām Muslim narrates in his Sahīh,
 
حدثنا محمد بن الصباح وزهير بن حرب وعثمان بن أبى شيبة قالوا حدثنا هشيم أخبرنا أبو الزبير عن جابر قال لعن رسول الله -صلى الله عليه وسلم- آكل الربا وموكله وكاتبه وشاهديه وقال هم سواء
(صحيح مسلم، باب لعن آكل الربا ومؤكله: 5/50؛ الجيل)
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم cursed the one who takes interest, gives interest, writes [an interest transaction], or bears witness to him.  And, he said, “They are all the same” (Muslim)
 
However, if the position does not involve any involvement in interest, such as a security guard, a janitor, or certain IT positions, then it will be permissible to work in the bank and the income will be halāl [i].  The bank is involved in harām, namely interest-bearing transactions, and a person’s employment may provide the bank assistance in various ways.  Yet, Allāh Ta’ālā says,
 
وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَى وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ (المائدة: 2)
And assist one another in righteousness and piety, but do not assist one another in sin and transgression (Qur’ān 5:2)
 
Hence, it is best to avoid working in a bank and search for employment elsewhere.  Please refer to fatwā #17597 [ii] for details of the various degrees of assisting in sin and their respective rulings.
 
As for your husband, it is unmanly and un-Islāmic to hurt ones wife or use abusive language towards her.  The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم has mentioned that, “The best of you is he who is best to his wife” (Tirmidhī) [iii].  A Muslim does not use abusive language, let alone towards his own wife.  The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said,
 
حدثنا سليمان بن حرب حدثنا شعبة عن منصور قال سمعت أبا وائل يحدث عن عبد الله قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم سباب المسلم فسوق وقتاله كفر
(صحيح البخاري، كتاب الأدب، باب ما ينهى عن السباب واللعن: 5/2247؛ ابن كثير)
To use abusive language towards a Muslim is wickedness, and to kill one is disbelief (Bukhārī)
 
Furthermore, your husband should avoid the company of those family members who influence him to act contrary to the Sharī’ah.  Allāh Ta’ālā warns us in the Qur’ān,
 
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنَّ مِنْ أَزْوَاجِكُمْ وَأَوْلَادِكُمْ عَدُوًّا لَكُمْ فَاحْذَرُوهُمْ وَإِنْ تَعْفُوا وَتَصْفَحُوا وَتَغْفِرُوا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ (التغابن: 14)
O you who believe!  Verily, amongst your wives and children are your enemies (i.e. those who stop you from the obedience of Allāh Ta’ālā).  Therefore, beware of them… (Qur’ān 64:14)
 
You should calmly explain to your husband the importance of treating you well and with respect, just as he would like to be treated.  For this purpose, the assistance of an elder, respected member of the family or society, such as the local imām, may be utilized.

حدثنا محمد بن يحيى حدثنا محمد بن يوسف حدثنا سفيان بن هشام بن عروة عن أبيه عن عائشة قالت : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم خيركم خيركم لأهله وأنا خيركم لأهلي وإذا مات صاحبكم فدعوه قال أبو عيسى هذا حديث حسن غريب صحيح من حديث الثوري ما أقل من رواه عن الثوري وروي عن هشام بن عروة عن أبيه عن النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم مرسل
