14 signs that YOU are in a TOXIC workplace:
1. Poor communication.
2. Rampant rumours and gossip.
3. Nobody is smiling.
4. High employee turnover rate.
5. People take credit for the work of others.
6. Your “leader/manager” does not inspire.
7. You suffer verbal abuse.
8. You work more hours than mandated, unpaid.
9. People blame each other.
10. Colleagues aren’t sharing the workload.
11. There is a big boy’s club.
12. You are being discriminated against.
13. Sexual harassment is not taken seriously.
14. Your People’s Department (formerly known as “HR”) is not neutral and sides with management. What can you do? Find an ally. Document everything. Consult with a corporate/employment lawyer. But most importantly...... Have an EXIT plan! I do not advise quitting a job until you have another contract in hand, but I know that toxic environments can be highly detrimental to physical and mental health. Do what’s best for YOU!
