Toxic workplace - Concerned Employee Invitation Homes Employee Review

The local VPO at our company is single-handedly destroying the positive culture that we have worked so hard to build. It is disheartening that we have to resort to posting anonymously to express our concerns, but the fear of retaliation is very real. The VPO consistently shuts down any ideas that are not her own and refuses to listen or collaborate with others. Her attitude of being the boss and nothing else is toxic to the working environment. Employees feel as though they have to walk on eggshells around her, afraid of her. It is not uncommon to witness her demeaning and disrespectful treatment of others, yet they continue to endure it without speaking up. Her unprofessional behavior extends to using vulgar language in the workplace, making some employees uncomfortable. The fear of retribution is so strong that even participating in our Peakon survey feels risky, as she may easily identify the department from which a comment originates.
