Toxic Workplace

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

The benefits are good, and the activities the company arranges are fun.

Cons

The upper management won’t acknowledge the toxic environment. They will schedule 1on1s pretending they are willing to work with you but that’s a BIG lie. They are pretty vocal about “someone has to get the job done”, meaning they will burn you out and this might include upper level work as well, but you won’t be paid like them or promoted. The upper management makes sure to promote themselves every other year and take the credit, but not the people who actually do the work. I have constantly heard management being openly rude and speaking down to women in meetings. One of the managers would actually sleep at work and still get promoted every other year.

So much potential, but frustrating

Pros

- creative, talented, friendly, hard-working people - good salary/bonus structure

Cons

- lack of organization and planning (micro and macro, enterprisewide) - "feel good" activities and contests don't make up for lack of resources

TOXIC! RUN

Pros

This place as toxic as it is, is great with flexibility if you’re well liked and supported by managers and need a flexible schedule they are open to listening. Very very selective with the approval process.

Cons

Generally, I won’t voice my opinion about previous employee / employer experiences because I feel it’s all based on individual personal perception but this place is TOXIC! I have a level of anxiety that I’ve never experienced in my life. First time Managers are put in positions of authority and backed by an leadership team that’s tone deaf and out of touch with the job market, and employee experience. You will be thrown into processes without proper training or understanding of the business and reprimanded and torn down when it’s not done right. Have a question about practices or fairness of how an employee is being treated that differs from an opinion of a manager or person on the leadership team, good luck with having a long term career path here because your opinion isn’t welcomed, no matter how much they tell you they welcome feedback. There is a me vs. them thought process and when you think you’re being supported and /or having discussions with other departments they will not back you up and at the sake of not wanting to rub someone the wrong way they will join in on trying to exit you from the organization because you’re not a good fit. The culture is weird and toxic and a lot of the more recent reviews pointing out micro managers, low paying salaries, job misalignment, and managers pretty much doing whatever they want are true.
