Toxic culture Where to start .. Leadership is against each other. Constantly had to listen to managers and above belittle other managers and departments. They even picked on employees, down to mocking their clothes. Of course, only behind their backs. Hostile environment - you make a mistake, you are gone. There was an error in manufacturing while I was there - the CEO immediately fired several employees and a lead that had been there for years. No questions, no understanding the process and why they failed, no second chances. Just immediate termination. Disorganized and little direction. No development opportunities, everyone out for themselves. Lots of employees with great experience and skills that were underutilized. Family owned and run business. Some family members put in positions they don't have the experience or knowledge to be successful in.
