There are numerous red flags that suggest you operate in a harmful environment. If you can recognize them and directly relate to these scenarios, you have a higher chance of making a plan and remaining a successful, productive employee despite your difficult circumstances.
1- Fatigue and illness
Have you gone through your life feeling generally well, only to discover that you’ve been feeling weary and sick since starting a new job? If you wake up in the morning with the desire to call in ill (whether legitimately or simply because you can’t bear the thought of coming to work), it’s a solid sign that you work in a toxic atmosphere that is negatively impacting your mental and physical health. Make sure you take regular breaks. Get enough rest. If you are unable to handle the extra time at the office, do not pick up hours. In the long term, avoiding burnout will help you and your organization because it means you won’t be staying at home.
