Speaking up about bad behaviors does nothing. Initially there will be some superficial fixes. But it’s nothing more than about protecting the company rather than protecting the individual from retaliations. Whistleblower are marked as a trouble maker.
Managers tell lies about the employee if necessary to protect or further their own careers. During the last few years, there is no mechanism to report bad behaviors. It was all about saving hides rather than caring for each others. There was no HR as they barely bothered with answering emails. The most you get is a survey which does not help. It’s really disgusting how many horrible people were retained and elevated. Lairs, self promoters, sharks, leeches, bullies, and predators seemed to thrive.
While most of the dead weight are gone , we also lost the best and brightest. Many good managers who kept an eye on these things either retired or were forced out.
It was not a safe place to work and the toxic culture was horrible. My bosses were horrible. The years I worked here still has taken a toll on my mental health. I suggest if you are in this situation, absolutely report it and leave this place. There are better places out there to work.
