Toxic work environment

3 replies

Claireintheair · Yesterday 19:52

I started a job earlier in the year, I have settled into the role well and enjoy my days there.

However I have noticed there are always emails out every other week calling out mistakes that have been made. These have not just been directed at myself but to other team members too.

This week I had an email out accusing me of not doing something I know I have done. I felt the accusation was not only unfair but not true.

I now struggle to trust my colleagues and have started to notice anxiety on my work days.
I work very hard and take pride in my job.

Although I have not been there long, I want out.

So this post is pretty much seeking advice of anyone who’s been in a similar position?

I have already emailed my manager feedback and also stood up for myself.
Though I can’t see things changing or improving much.
Should I just try to stick it out longer? Or leave? If so how would I inform future interviewers that my previous job I did not stay in more than 6 months?

Find a new job and leave - life it too short to feel anxious every time you have to go to work.

Also it's not terrible to leave after 6 months - you can say that the culture wasn't right or that it wasn't a good fit, while still letting the employer know about all the things you did well!

Are you making mistakes? I had a junior in my team who I could see was becoming anxious about the feedback on her performance, however she was making significant numbers of mistakes in a line of work where mistakes can't be made. They were accuracy errors rather than technical errors. Have you spoken to your manager to understand whether there are genuine concerns around your performance?

If it is just a toxic environment then as others have said, get out quick.
