RED FLAGS

Of a toxic work enviroment

Availability 24/7

Knowing that you could get a call, email, or text from your boss that you're expected to respond to, regardless of the day or time, can be incredibly stressful. An occasional email or text after hours for something genuinely urgent is not abnormal, but consistent out-of-hours contact is a red flag.

No time off

If no one ever uses up their allotted time off, you might feel pressured to do the same. But this leads to burnout fast. Never taking time off is unhealthy, and that is understood in a good professional enviornment.

Employee turnover

High employee turnover often means a company doesn't know how to keep people happily employed. If the company is doing nothing to tackle a high turnover rate, that could be red flag.

Lack of teamwork

Without teamwork, collaboration fails, workplace relationships crumble, and business tends to take a hit. If you find that your coworkers gossip, talk behind your back, or sabotage your work day, it might be time for a job change.
