Bad management and toxic blaming culture has driven good employees out - Recensione dipendente - Marketing presso Daxko

This was one of the most unhealthy work environments I’ve experienced. Leadership spends an incredible amount of time trying to improve employee satisfaction scores and external brand perception while refusing to acknowledge the actual root issues internally. The same complaints come up over and over again, people raise concerns repeatedly, and nothing meaningful changes. Senior leaders constantly blame each other, throw team members under the bus, and even blame former employees for issues they clearly contributed to or outright caused themselves. I was personally told that a leader in my department recently blamed me for something that happened after I left the company, which is wildly inappropriate behavior from adults in VP positions. What makes it worse is that these conversations are openly documented on the company messaging platform in channels that employees can search and reference internally. That's just one example of a massive red flag on company culture. There is very little accountability at the top. HR of course appears more focused on protecting leadership and maintaining optics than actually investigating concerns or creating a healthy workplace. Employees are encouraged to speak up, but when they do, concerns either go nowhere or become twisted into a narrative problem instead of being addressed directly. There is also a huge disconnect between how leadership talks about company culture publicly versus what employees actually experience internally. Communication is reactive, priorities constantly shift, and certain leaders create an environment where people feel anxious, disposable, and afraid of becoming the next scapegoat. The unfortunate part is that many people working there are actually good people. But toxic management dynamics ruin morale quickly and drive strong employees out the door.
