How do you know if a culture is toxic?
Leaders blame their team members when things go wrong, insistent that failures are someone else's fault
Negative feedback on job performance is the only type of feedback that is given. Evaluations are used to instill fear in employees instead of used to develop and grow them
Significant turnover or sick callouts - before you apply check how many people left business in the last 6 months
Lack of accountability - check company's responses to the 1-star reviews. When a company uses templates to respond to negative reviews and instead of acknowledging their failure to provide a safe working environment uses phrases such "fast-paced", "fun", "high standards" just shows their lack of accountability
People Work Late or on Weekends - expect to work 24/7 with no additional compensation
