Once Good Culture - Now Extremely Toxic

Pros

Extremely Great Product - Best in Class by far - Some truly excellent talent works here.

Cons

I've never been one to use the term "toxic", but the work environment has become extremely toxic and hostile. They replaced an entire leadership chain with external leadership and they brought along a very toxic culture along with their own set of sub-leaders. The culture has changed dramatically. I've also never used the term micro-aggressions before, but my day is filled with head scratching passive aggressiveness. I finish work sometimes feeling completely shell shocked. Work used to be a passion, now it's just work.
