Red flags before starting the job included false information about job responsibilities.
Decisions were made by a few people at the top and were delivered with unrealistic expectations and timelines. No pushback was tolerated, even if it went against the goals and objectives or best practices.
There was no accountability for changing direction at the last minute and losing weeks of work that included late nights and weekends.
Management was not afraid to chastise employees for their work in team meetings, something that was very uncomfortable and should have been handled privately. Anyone in the inner circle would be casually told about people that would be losing their jobs. Even if you weren't in the inner circle you could guess who was going next based on snide remarks about employees from management.
People losing their jobs was a regular occurrence as people were quietly walked out the door without cause. This put a lot of people on edge and all fostered a toxic work environment.
