What happens in a bloody, third grade, toxic organization that makes it a bloody, third grade, toxic organization?
Well, many things and most of them bad.
Here are some such things that you will certainly come across.
- The company is managed by a close-knit coterie comprising of third-rate, unethical, unprofessional and toxic people
- The only factor that matters in such a company is loyalty to the chief of the toxic tribe and the prevalent toxic-laden tribal culture
- The coterie manages through back-channel discussions and back-door machinations and manipulations
- The HR in such companies is nothing more then a moronic stooge of the management. The only role of the head of HR in such companies is to work as a parrot of the top man
- The head of HR in such companies is an expert in toxicity and adept in managing things through manipulation and sickening, unprofessional relationship with the top management and the coterie
- Those in the coterie in such organizations behave as if they are the smartest folks on the planet. For them, everyone else is beneath them. Their toxicity and exclusivity is too evident to ignore.
- Those in the coterie are put in the key positions by the top man. The reason for this to happen has nothing to do with their competency but just one thing - blind loyalty like a dog to the master, the top man!
- If you are ethical and professional, you won't matter in such organizations. You will be like a golden fish in a dirty pond. You will live but barely survive. Not to forget the bad smell you will have to live with due to the toxicity around you
- You will be forced to report into an ass-licking, incompetent, childish, toxic, comical ass-hole and will have a tough time
- You can't escalate the above issues to the top man as the top man himself will be like that. In addition, how can you expect the top man to listen anything about his pet puppies in the very coterie that he has fathered
- While you stay in such a company you will have a bad ride due to the toxicity created and propagated by those in the coterie
- Your views will not matter in the real sense. The coterie will finally have their way using back-channel discussions and back-door machinations and manipulations
- You will be as good as a nothing in such organizations. You will not have much say in the affairs of the company. And even if you are heading a department you will be by-passed and humiliated and made to look like a fool. The coterie will do everything and make use of back-channel discussions and back-door machinations and manipulations to make you feel so
If you can survive such a company, hats off to you!
It means a very good thing about you - you are truly a positive person and totally professional.
And yes, you should laugh out loud.
There's nothing you can do other than move on fast.
And till that time, just laugh out loud!
