Just go close to the company during their break time or closing hours and ask questions from workers, most of the online reviews are mostly from management team.

Well for me is part of the research that is supposed to be done, but also when u enter company premises check the kind of car the staffs are using that will tell you the prospect when u start working with them.

You are wicked

Great Post, but the former employee part does not always work.

For instance, someone reached out to me through LinkedIn to ask about a particular place I worked, with a view to knowing certain things. I gave her a general answer of "It is like any other entity with its peculiarities".

Meanwhile, I won't recommend that place for anyone. However, I bet you don't expect me to start raising the issue of toxic environment and others with a stranger who is looking at working there.

Don't just QUIT your JOB the moment someone offers you a better salary.

Research your new boss, the people and the culture.

No amount of money can compensate for a toxic work culture.

The truth is, the grass is not always greener on the other side.

I learned this the hard way.

If an organization has a high turnover rate, or there are always vacancies for the same position.

Agree?

I should have told a stranger that a place is toxic and my experience there was negative? You have an idea of what a lawsuit means?

You can do better when someone reaches out to you for such.
