Exit a toxic Workplace NOW
Don't live in hope of a quick solution to a toxic workplace.
Career advice based on RESEARCH...not chance!
Ten indicators of a toxic workplace:
-
Employee sickness
-
Continual workplace tension
-
Narcissistic leadership
-
Lack of enthusiasm
-
Poor communication
-
Continual negativity
-
High staff turnover
-
Cliques of employees
-
Gossiping
-
Vicious rumours
Any of the above signs can slowly develop over time due to a range of factors that are usually totally out of anyone's control (even management).
History shows that a toxic workplace is almost impossible to quickly reverse, so how long do you "stick around"?
NOT VERY LONG is ACMA's advice.
Your personal health and well being is too important, plus trying to transition to another employer from a known toxic workplace can tarnish your brand.
Astute recruiters and hiring managers will most likely check your previous work history and may quickly decide not to risk you as a candidate (even though you weren't any part of the workplace culture).
Living in hope of a change in toxic behaviour with your current employer is personally and career-wise, very risky.
Ask yourself:
-
How are you sleeping
-
Are you regularly getting at least eight hours
-
What's your eating like
-
Are you often too stressed to eat, or do you tend to overeat
-
Are you feeling safe at home and at work
