A toxic workplace is simply an environment that is emotionally unhealthy. Signs of a toxic workplace are noticeable in employees.
1. Atmosphere of paranoia. Employees are always looking over their shoulders.
2. Tendency for management to blame employees, rather than problem-solving.
3. Shaming employees for mistakes they have made on the job.
4. A boss with erratic and unpredictable behavior.
5. Implementing ‘change for change’s sake.’
6. Producing a ‘schizophrenic’ atmosphere by saying one thing, doing another.
7. Rewarding unhealthy behaviors, such as overwork, bullying or codependency.
