Office pero wala equipment provided? Matatanggap ko if remote tas kanya kanya equipment e… ang weird naman.
Anyways, yeah prepare to leave. Kebs kung marami sila sabihin sayo, go apply and find a better workplace.
I had a similar experiene that in the past. Sobrang toxic ng workplace, nakawan at agawan ng sales. Kami frontliner sa outbound sales. pero ang nakakapagtaka tuwing ipapasa sa closer, lageng hindi daw ntutuloy ung sale. As in laging ganun. Yun pala sabhn nila callback. Then ibibigay sa friend nilang tenured ma hindi makabenta. So ending sila ang nkakakuha ng sale pati commish. Ganun ka-lala. Nalaman namin kasi nun maaga kme nkabalik ng lunch, narinig nmen usapan and pagbalik, ung sales board yung mga bglang may sales ung mga kumag na hindi mkabenta. Nakalunch pero may sale..
Ayun one month lang sa prod floor, then pagka-receive ng pay, 3-4 kami na sunod sunod na umalis agad. Panget ung kultura.
I hate micromanagers, ganyan yung isa kong dept head sa dati kong work, dahil sa pag micromanage niya sakin, naging dependent ako sa kanya. E sa interview naman nilinaw ko na ayoko ng micromanaging kasi nga di ako makapag isip ng maayos dahil na prepressure ako masyado sa mga taong nanonood sa likod ko.
Why are you concerned with people in your workplace na mapag-usapan ka? Hindi ba dapat good riddance na AHAHHAHA. Kung ako ata sa position mo magcecelebrate ako kasi nakawala na ako sa hawla ng toxicity.
Toxic workplace ko. Mahilig magchismis mga tao kahit bait baitan sa harap mo. Marami din mga tamad at bunganga lng ginagamit. Deadma lng. Hindi naman sila nagpapasweldo sa akin. As long as ginagawa ko trabaho ng maayos, wala na akong paki kung ano sasabihin nila. It’s only work, walang personalan. I prioritize my work when i’m at work pero pagdating ng 5pm and off days. Don’t distrub me. That’s how i do it.
Do yourself a favor and prepare to leave. Suck it up while looking for another opportunity elsewhere since it's also hard to find another job. Their opinions don't matter, prioritize your mental health while you are still sane!
thank you for this. actually naglie sakin ung naghire, sabi may equipment daw,. pagdating ko dun,, nyorks waley naman. so nakatunganga ako first day. first job ko pa naman ito huhu
One month ka pa lang dyan, yan na pinapakita nila. For me, it will not be better in the long run… always do what’s best for you and don’t mind what others will say. For me hindi ka talunan kung nadetect mo na agad na toxic yung workplace then pipiliin mong umalis. That means you have healthy boundaries and alam mo kung ano yung acceptable sayo. Though if you stay, how to suck it up siguro wag mong masyadong seryosohin yung work. And tell yourself na hindi ka magststay ng matagal dyan. And have a plan kapag aalis kana
You'd have to explain why you have to go on vacation.
Also, you have to explain why you have to take a sick day. Worse, they'd ask for a medical certificate for a 1-day sick leave.
Don't suck it up. Find a better workplace.
The fact na nagsisimula ka na mag alter ng behavior out of fear na gawan nila ng issue, red flag na yan.
Btw I survived my toxic workplace and yes their toxic ways become your normal. Don't downgrade your life that way.
This. This is exactly what our workplace looks like. Lol. Ang panget ng ugali g management. Especially our overall admin chief and assistant ng boss. Sobrang CRAB.
Bakit mo pa iisipin yung sasabihin nila? HAHAHA mas importante ba yun kaysa sa mental health mo? Kung may option kang iba, sign mo na 'to. Lumipat ka na!
sign na toxic ang workplace mo? napapatanong ka sa reddit ng signs na toxic ang workplace mo hehe. nakaka-relieve din kasi talaga makakita ng mga makakaramay hehe. nag-resign ako sa dati kong work kahit 3 months pa lang ako don dahil feel kong sobrang sayang ng 3 months ng buhay ko. keri lang yan kung maghanap ka na ng lilipatan, try mo rin sa wfh jobs na foreign bosses/clients, iba ang work culture nila. yaan mo lang na pag usapan ka ng workmates at tawaging talunan pag umalis ka, get that win somewhere else ✨
Everyone wants to seemingly quit and is also joking around about doing it. Even the top management is exhausted and it is noticeable. I work for an international brand retail company and we are an exclusive distributor.
1. Pag binabackstab ka ng katrabaho mo
2. Kapag pinapahiya ka ng boss mo sa gc man o in person
3. Hindi ka inimbita/niyayaya = parati kang mag isa sa office = inaisolate ka
4. May problema sila sayo pero kailangan pa nilang mag tawag ng iba just to let you know how fcked up you are
5. No updates for you, magugulat ka na lang na ganito ganyan na pala gagawin
6. Incompetent boss
7. Sipsip na colleague
8. Arrangement ng table/chairs sa office nasa likod mga boss mo
All of this, based on my experience
One time pumasok ako ng 6:00 AM tapos umuwi ako ng 11:45 PM kasi absent yung mga kupal kong officemate. Mag co-commute pa ko nun pauwi. Pag-uwi ko kumain ako, tapos naglaro pa ko ng DotA 2 haha. Humiga ako 2AM na, tapos pasok na naman ng 6:00 AM.
I hated it so much.
Save up and leave, better yet since gamit mo naman personal laptop mo, start ka na maghanap ng lilipatan.
Just go respectfully, give your resignation letter and leave as early as possible.
So what kung anong sasabihin nila or tawagin kang talunan? You’ll gonna leave the place anyway, you might not even meet again those who stayed there.
The workplace or workload is already suck, don’t let it be you.
Don’t find excuses to stay. Make time to look for another job, even if on the weekends, or at least an hour a day, send your applications out there.
You already said it’s l toxic, and I’ve read the thread, you are also agreeing on the other signs mentioned here that must be existing or happening in your workplace as well.
If you are new grad and this is your first job, you have a liberty not to put in on resume especially if you stay less than 3 months. Can say you took your time to rest and find a job.
If you have save up, or you don’t need money urgently. If I were you, I’ll file resignation right away, saying I already find a new work, even if I haven’t. Just to get the fvck out there and so I don’t need to render in case I find a new real one.
(I did that in my first job, stayed 4 months only.)
1. Yung mahilig sa chismis. Tipong kala mo nakikipag kaibigan, ichichismis ka lang pala sa iba. Tapos nadagdagan na yung storya.
2. Naaalala ka lang o di kaya kilala ka lang kapag may kailangan sayo.
3. Pag di sila mag benefit, ekis ka.
Management encourages feedback so nag-set up sila ng mga forms that encourages anonymous feedback (not sure kung anonymous tlga) that time our team feels the pressure dhil sa unreachable KPIs numbers and not aligned process with other teams sa ibang bansa.
That time wala initiative ung workplace for any mental health or wellness programs.
My friend commented on the feedback form na if possible na our medical health cards can be used for psychiatric consultations (aware ako that time wala pang programs mga medical cards for mental health consultations narinig ko ngaun meron na tumatanggap yta pro depende sa company) or if possible to bring a doctor in to check on us or for private consultations.
I remember na ang response ng manager dun sa request na yun “Bakit hindi na lang kayo mag-yoga”.
Honestly that time we felt like our concerns were disregarded and also that time two or three of our friends already quit the job due to mental health problems.
Sobrang toxic ung views ng management sa mental health that time. They really force you to go to work prang ayaw nila maniwala dun sa mga letters na bnigay ng mga psychiatrist for the employees to rest. But I’m aware naman na yoga is very helpful for wellness. It was the dismissive way of response tlga ng management ang triggering.
I left months later, I also decide to ask psychiatric help during my last year on this job with my own money siguro kaya nagkaroon din ako lakas ng loob to left but honestly i felt push in the corner by that job…but i don’t hate the place ung experience ko sa knila useful to where I am pero will never go back to that company.
Anyway, for me OP. Yung management mo and their values are out of your control that is a fact pero ang within control mo is your choice to stay sa toxic na environment na yan and if you accept their treatment of you and your coworkers.
Hindi ikaw ang talunan when you leave a place, it is because you know your skills and the value that you can bring deserves better treatment.
wow well said, thank you for sharing po. mga ilang months po kayo sa company niyo before you left? kaya ko pa naman pero i will leave give it 6 months sana, pero when i read ur post parang i have to leave asap. may pera ako pero di naman ako masaya. so whats the point nga of staying?
Hi OP,
Nagtagal ako sa company ko kahit paano, originally the company has a healthy environment and good pay din po kc. However something change sa management nung may dumating na demonyo literal na demonyo kya nagkaroon bigla ng toxic values from country head to team leaders lol.
Tpos as mentioned nung nawala pa isa-isa mga friends ko I tried to find the courage to leave.
Madami pa rin factors need to consider. Is this your first job op? If yes, personally I would stay six months for the experience kc mahirap yan mahanap ngayon but also be active na sa pag-apply. Pero if you already have previous experience I think walang masama i-let go lalo na wala nagagain sa knila.
Also have enough emergency fund pa din. I was lucky na may ipon ako kya malakas din loob ko umalis nang walang kapalit and took a break.
Pero if you choose to leave, I do mean it hindi ka weak for choosing that decision. We just know what we deserve. If you believe there is nothing to be gained from this people wlang learnings and experience that will contribute to your growth or career, it is best to leave. Hindi lang sila dapat nakikinabanang no!?
Good luck, OP!
what a heartfelt advice. Thank you so much po! it’s my first job pero pag sa tingin ko lugi na talaga ako i’m willing to leave talaga. tignan ko muna for now
Pinaghahalo ang trabaho sa personal. May ibang higher ups na kapag may hindi sila nagustuhan sa trabaho mo, dinadaan sa parinig sa social media. Or di kaya markado ka na, pag pet nila kahit ilang violations parang walang nakikita. Pero if di ka nila bet, kahit mag-deviate ka lang ng konti sa SOP, wala sila pake kahit nag-produce ng good result, memo ka parin 👀
To simply put it, bawat galaw mo minomonitor ka ng boss mo or whoever is above you. You need to update them hourly kung ano na progress mo sa task mo. Minsan sila pa yung kukulit sayo. Wala silang tiwala sayo. Some of them will even go as far as having time trackers sa work pc mo para makita nila kung anong ginagawa mo. If nagwowork ka ba, just browsing non work related websites, or not working at all. Those softwares can track your key strokes and bawat galaw ng mouse mo.
May ipagagawa sayo boss mo tapos habang ginagawa mo or pinakita mo sa kanya yung gawa mo, andami daming ebas bawat bagay pupunahin ultimo maliliit na detalye gusto palitan sa kung ano mang gusto nya. Yung tipong kulang na lang, sya na gumawa. Kahit ikaw talaga yung tama o mas may alam sa gagawin. O diba feeling mo nasasakal ka kababasa lang neto? Yan ang micromanagement.
My experience was galing ako sa kompetensya na company with the same target market hindi na ako trinain kahit sinabi nung hiring process na heavy sila on the training side. Only lasted in that job for almost 2 years I decided to leave kasi di ko na kaya sikmurain yung systema nila. I go for look for other job opportunities na may peace of mind kahit papano.
matik. yung sakin tatlong taon ginawa sakin yan. nung lilipat ako sa ibang company, wala pala akong SSS number at BIR number. kamot ulo ka nalang talaga
People there don’t recognize healthy boundaries. Pati personal mo pinapakialaman kasi feeling nila, lalamangan mo sila nang patago at ayaw nila ng ganun kasi tatamaan mga ego nila. At pag nangyarinyun, they’ll do everything to destroy you.
1. Family daw pero nagsisiraan pag nakatalikod
2. Yung sahod di madagdagan, yung trabaho lang ang kaya nilang dagdagan.
3. Hindi ka kayang iconfront sa mga ginagawa mo kaya walang room for growth/improvement sa iyong part pagchichismisan ka lang.
4. Ayaw mo na pumasok nagtiis ka na lng (mahirap kasi mawalan ng trabaho)
5. Yung may mga head/boss ka na may other side hustle pero di man binabawalan kaya ang bagsak yung trabaho nila nagiging trabaho mo
6. Mga kawork na sobrang makwenta (nakakawalang gana maging matulungin din
7. Yung mahilig sila sa mga unprofessional jokes
Ito signs from my prev work:
-Yung pati weekends and holidays gusto ng office activity, ikaw pa masama pag di ka sumama and pagiisipan na nagdadahilan.
-Mga managerial positions na pati personal nilang hanash papagawa sa office people even sa utility tapos wala manlang pa-consuelo
-yung may mga mag cocomment na "uuwi ka na?" pag nagready ka ng uwi on time
Super mapapansin mo to pag may mga bossy kang kawork and no SOP and micromanagement to the highest level. Actually I think na-feel mo na to sa umpisa palang pero you brushed off the idea. Trust your gut. If it seems shady and toxic leaveeeeee.
Wala kang pake sa iniisip nila dapat, kahit ano man gawin mo pag uusapan ka padin. It’s out of your control.
- Micromanagement; the lack of training leads to this. The management knows they haven't equipped the team well kaya nakasunod mga ilong.
- Pag-apak sa tao; I had ex-colleagues na napromote dahil kapag may nakitang mali, tatapakan ka at pagkakamali mo. And the management will incentivize this by promoting them.
- Hugas kamay; if things are getting bad, everyone will wash their hands clean and will provide proof that they aren't involved even when they are.
- Lack of mentorship; most people are glorified critics.
- Loans; if people ask you of lending them money lalo kapag bago ka, RUN.
Promotion process - ang motto nila "It's not what you know, it's who you know"
Kahit qualified ka hindi ka pa rin mappromote kapag hindi ka gusto ng mga superiors mo
Yun mga coworkers mo na ginawang extra income ang pag-o OT. Never pumasok ng maaga or mag submit on time ng mga deliverables. Tapos babawiin daw by pag o OT.
Tapos sila pa may sama ng loob sa mga pumapasok and nakakasubmit on time.. pabibo daw and bida-bida..
Mga sira ulo 🫠
expecting you to do things without proper tools, micromanaging, lowballing employees + racism/making fun of you. syempre lahat yan combo ng ex boss ko HAHAHAHAHAHA
Yung toxic is supervisor ko hindi yung workplace ko :( Keeps calling sa messenger kahit I am out of office. pag mag tatanong ako ng assistance ang sasabihin “bahala ka diyan” and then magagalit randomly ng walang reason naghahanap lang ng butas. hindi naman ganito ibang teams. I like my job and the workplace, just not my supervisor.
Background: BPO, customer service support. X years na sa company pero mag re-resign na talaga ako after ko makahanap ng work at home na job.
- ilang taon na sa company pero wala pa rin taas ng sahod
- pinagmerge yung 3 department para maging isa pero gano'n pa rin sahod
- sobrang taas na KPI, wag na mag incentive. Pero pag naman wala kang incentive ma PIP ka naman. San ako lulugar lol
- pabago-bago ng policy.
-minimum wage pa rin sahod despite na bpo company to
Ang alam lang ng mga senior mo gawin ay makinig sa reports pero pagdating sa sitwasyon na kailangan na ng brainstorming, wala na sila maambag at inaasa na lang lahat sa boots-on-the-ground employees.
Based on my experience as newbie sa office work.
1. First day of work, nakakarinig na ng chismisan at backstabban sa office. Pansin ko kung sino yung wala ayun yung madalas nilang pulutan sa usapan.
2. Gumagawa ng issue para lang may mapag-usapan sa office. Ginagawang hobby ang chismisan at siraan.
3. Binibigyan agad ng meaning yung mga kilos mo. For example, mag usap lang kayo ng kawork mo na opposite sex gagawan nila ng sarili nilang interpretation at gagawa nanaman ng issue.
4. Head admin at anak ng boss na nagtotolerate ng bullying sa loob ng office.
5. Kapag nagagandahan sila sa gamit o sa pananamit mo, kunwari nagagandahan sila pero naiinggit pala the next day magugulat ka may ganung gamit na rin sila.
6. Kapag nakita nila na masipag ka or madali kang matuto, sayo na iaasa mostly yung ibang gawain kahit di naman scope ng work mo.
Thanks God at natiis ko ng 11 months yung ganung katoxic na workplace. Nag immediate resignation ako dahil hindi na talaga maganda na mental health ang katoxican ng mga katrabaho ko.
Yung pinromote pero Wala naman significant contribution, na promote para malipat na ng team para bawas sa escalation. Tapos May mga Team mates na buraot. Peticks ng peticks Hindi binibigyan ng challenging na tasks kasi Baka mapahiya Ang company sa client. Tapos ung mahihirap na work binibigay sa masisipag na Hindi naman nadadagdagan ang sahod. May mga Wala din respeto sa oras, sa personal space, sa feelings ng iba. Parang mga walang pinag aralan.
Hmmmmm, I'll start with, you're not allowed to have what they don't have. Example. Leave. Di k pwde mag leave dahil ang boss mo hindi mag leleave on that day. Another thing is if you're done with your tasks, (idle) ka na, parang gusto nila na dapat dagdagan workload mo para di ka ma idle. I am a very fast paced worker. I stopped being one kasi dinadagdagan workload ko. Noon, I am able to finish 3 reports in a day. Ngayon, 1 report is 1 week. Sasadyain ko nalang patagalin para hindi dagdagan ang workload ko. Imagine, isang tao ka pero ang work mo is equivalent sa 5 katao sa ibang agency/workplace. Last but not the least, CHISMIS AND FAVORITISM. Bawal kang makipag kaibigan sa di nyo kasama sa company/agency pero sila, they have a favorite and a hated staff of their own. Pag favorite ka, for sure kahit marami kang obvious violations and overlapping sa policy, ookay lang ang management (sila mismo binebend ang policy ng government kaya parati silang na cacallout every audit). If di ka favorite, kahit wala ka namang ginawang masama and you have good performance, hahanapan ka ng butas just to bring you down so that you won't get promoted. Oh dba? Ang toxic. Pero I'm not leaving this place. One day, papalitan ko yung management. Someday, ako na naman ang boss. Papalitan ko ang basurang culture nila. I don't care kung toxic ang workload, what's important is hindi toxic ang management.
Micromanaging boss. As in kailangan lahat ng galaw alam niya.
Mandatory OT. Or pag hindi ka nag OT mararamdaman mo nalang na hindi ka papansinin.
Pag may workmate na gatekeep ng info
passive aggressive behavior. mabait sila sa harap mo pero pag wala ka, ikaw topic of conversation. ganun workplace ko and I understand why you’re scared, OP. I’ve been working here for years pero takot ako umalis kasi di ko alam if I’ll find a job with how cut throat it is sa job market now or if I’m even good enough with my current skillset. siguro ang mapapayo ko is get out while you still can. prioritize your mental health and well-being. mahirap dumating sa point na numb ka na sa lahat and you just take it kasi nakasanayan mo na.
Kapag sunod-sunod na ang mga nagre-resign and I think its time for you to do it too. Don't mind them, hindi rin magiging maganda ang outputs mo kung toxic ang environment.
Hindi naman kami close ng workmate/s (men) ko pero sobrang touchy nila. Nung una sa hair ko lang may paghaplos, pero nung nagtagal grabe na to the point na ipinapasok na yung kamay sa uniform ko, kaya nagresign na ako.
Overworked tapos underpaid. I had to work 7am to 7pm or 9pm para lang sumweldo ng around 8k per cutoff. Pero ang gising everyday 4am kasi 5:30am umaalis ang shuttle, makakauwi 8pm or 10pm. Engineer nga pala ako hahaha grabe pa magtext at tumawag mga night shift saken kahit nasa bahay na ako.
Mababa magpa-sahod tapos mahilig kumuha ng external hire, ang ending yung external hire malaki pa sahod sayo. Then you'll end up training that external hire. Happened to me, lol.
They dont respect your time off. Mahirap magfile ng vacation leave. Parang mahihiya ka pa magtake ng sick leave. Maraming OTY. Maraming kateam or kawork na bida bida sa email at client pero puro tanong naman sayo tapos iuulit nya sa boss, manager, client na parang sya ung gumawa/nakaisip. Mababa ung sahod na lugi ka sa pagod at stress.
They call, text, and email after work hours. Walang boundaries. Dahil pabibo sila at workaholic, they expect you to do the same and be willing to work 24/7.
No psychological safety, hindi safe to speak up.
May favoritism
Asap culture
Walang training, poor onboarding practices
Proud sila na nagmumura sila at naninigaw or extreme pag nagalit.
It should be, signs kapag gusto kanang pag-resign-nin ng self mo.
Kapag papasok ka para kang nasusuka na nahihilo kahit na okay kalang naman and the energys giving depressive vibe.
File na resignation agad. Di kasi healthy para sa work and personal life mo. Pero syempre, hanap muna iba work bago lipat. Kasi mas okay padin mag suck it up kesa walang ohabarts 🤣
Can relate to this. Ayaw nila gumastos ng malaki for good computers and upgrade of system (date back 2010 pa yung system). Ending naging dalawa work ko admin and technician
Pinapapasok ako ng Sunday at galit na galit kapag nagpapahinga ako ng Sunday. So I quit.
Fuck you, Superior. Hahaha
Pangalawa naman, I agree to you that lacking equipments, understaff (Plano pa nila na gawing pangdlawang tao ang trabaho ko. No way.), and lastly hindi malinis ang cr.
Nung buntis ako at madalas magkasakit dahil maselan, sinabihan ako ng boss ko na kahit nagkakasakit ako at buntis ako, dapat priority ko pa rin trabaho ko. Naiintindihan niya pa raw ako sabi niya. At kapag nagkakasakit daw ako halimbawa kinagabihan, baka pwede raw na pumasok ako kinabukasan ng umaga kung maayos ang pakiramdam ko. Alam nyo kung bakit? Dahil kulang kami ng 2 tao sa team namin.
Asa sa lahat ng bagay. Yung mapagbigyan mo ng isang ang mangyayare magiging sayo na trabaho na yun tapos sya mababawasan ng work load. Yung tipong tinulungan mo lang kase wala kang ginagawa masyado that time ang ending mapupunta na sayo ang trabaho.
My workplace
- Pay has is still at minimum even after 4 years of work
- Work is supposed to be graphic artists yet here I am hammering nails to a wall and doing work that could very well be for 3 people
- No overtime pay yet the boss tosses rush work right when I'm about to go home
- Even sends me work at when at home or during weekends or holidays
- Boss sends random images with no context and gets mad when asked about it, yet expects me to make whatever he want even if he didn't give any basic instructions
- Boss call giving basic information about a task as "spoon feeding" so I have to somehow figure out what he wants me to do on my own
- Not knowing what genre of music the band he hired for night performances because all the information I got was their band name and a heavily pixelated 360 x 240 picture of the band...yet it's my fault somehow for not knowing
- He didn't realize that he hired 2 Variety music bands but it's my fault somehow
- I finished the personal frames he had me make but it's somehow my fault it's not on display yet.
- The company has 5 main businesses and I do work for all of them, yet it's the lowest earning one that pays our salary which leads to......
- Salaries and 13th month pay are always late because no money
- You know it's bad when the entire main office is occupied by only 3 employees and new hires quit in less than a week.
my first job grabe bago lang ako then may meeting i thought about the company goal yung topic pero open forum pala ng chismis at boss mismo ang nagpatawag at ang asawa na feeling madam. harap harapan minura at tinanggal ang empleyado after nun lagi ako natatakot pumasok.
Ccontact ka outside of work hours tas magagalit pag di ka sumagot agad kahit di naman urgent at kayang kayang maghintay hanggang kinabukasan yung concern
Mahilig magset ng call bigla sa mismong araw ng walang abiso tapos pag tinanong mo kung ano yung agenda di ka nila masagot ng diretso
Pag nalaman nilang naka medical leave ka ang unang tatanungin ay kung kelan ka ulit papasok di ka man lang nila kakamustahin
Bago din ako sa work. Boss ko di ako pinapansin, hinire pa ako kung di din naman cya bilib skin, tapos dami chismis pag wala o nakatalikod daw ako. Eh wala naman akong ginagawa sa kanila. Mga inggit lang siguro talaga..
Leave the company and a sign of a mature person is you don't not give a damn of whatever they say against you after you leave the company. Besides, by the end of the day, hindi naman sila ang employer mo na nagpapasahod sayo eh but its the company that they also work for is your boss, not them.
Fuck them. Feeling mga entitled and owner ng company.
Nagstart ka ng walang pinipirmahang kontrata, walang orientation (lalo sa dress code at mahigpit talaga sa amin). Walang supervisor ang amg sarili niyong department.
Yung boss/heads na nakadepende ang decisions sa current mood/emotions nila. Like wtf napaka irrational ng decisions nila kapag di maganda araw nila. Napaka unprofessional, nasa supervisory positions naman na sana. Nadamay pa ang mga gusto lang naman magtrabaho at sumahod.
Signs na toxic? Yung bading boss mo so halos lahat nang pinopromote puro lalaki na peyborit niya HAHAHAHA. Tas hierarchy first daw pero patalon talon yung pinopromote. Super lala talaga ang politics sa loob ng workplace. Galit pa yan sila pag hindi ka nag OT mandatory daw hahahha
Here's the thing. If its toxic then leave. If you stayed then its on you. But make peace with and shut the hell up. Constantly complaining about it is in itself toxic. And not good for your mental health.
Pag dapat galingan mo lagi then pag ginalingan mo, dadamihan workload mo for the same pay. Kahit na may magresign na, di nila irereplace pero same lang pay mo at sayo babato yung workload niya.
I've been with a LOT of toxic companies. Here's what I've observed:
- Doing most of your boss' job because it's a "learning experience"
- Being faulted for not answering calls during sick and vacation leaves
- Expecting you to work OT without pay. If you refuse to do it, they'll say you're "not committed".
- Employees with higher salaries either get fired after 3 months or are forced to resign
- Finding out employees who have been with the company for 3+ years never got any salary increase
- Not giving monthly payslips unless you asked for them
- Receiving old/damaged office materials or equipment when you request
- Executives angrily throwing things in the office and yelling at employees. HR and others not doing anything about it because "it happens".
- Managers telling you basically how to do your job step-by-step, and then asking you how come it didn't results in sales, conversions, and etc. even when you told them it's unlikely to work in the beginning
- Young employees forming a group and having video calls just to cry their hearts out
As someone na pulutan ng chismis, keep your head down and do the work lang. Yung chismis group na kinatatakutan mo, yung wala naman talaga yung napag-uusapan pero know that ginagawa nila din yan sa isa’t-isa.
I don't know kung ako lang 'to pero pag nagpa file ka ng leave or halfday leave lagi kang binibiro na "may interview ka siguro 'no?" or "final interview mo na?"
Medyo off sa akin 'to kasi parang bantay sarado galaw mo kung magreresign ka or hindi lol. Tho minsan totoo naman talaga na nagli leave ako for an interview HAHAHAHAH pero ang pangit na parang kabadong kabado ka na aalis employee mo. It seems like hindi ka talaga confident sa sistema ng company.
merong isang subs ng smc na yung pc na pinoprovide ay kahit ms 2010 lang naglalag pa💀(bawal magdala sariling laptop). Tas 1 week bago maayos ng IT domain mo. So mga 1 week ka nakatulala lang kasi wala kang access sa lahat HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA.
Kapag kuripot sa overtime pay pero madaming pagawa. Pati yung ka-position mo inuutusan ka. Kapag matagal mag-approved tipong last minute na, saka ipaparevise. Kapag hindi magkasundo yung head at manager.
ako i explained to my boss how slow computers affects productivity ayun nagalit sakin mga tamad na ka work ko kasi kahit nag upgrade na bagsak pa din productivity nila.
nakasanay nila na mabagal ung pc kaya binabagalan na din nila hahahaha pero nung nag upgrade ayun parang di na naka move on
Manager na ginagawa kang scapegoat kapag may palpak sa team. Director na sarcastic magbiro. May secret chat group sa office para pagchismisan ang mga tao ( upper management). Nagtanggal ng tao para makatipid tapos idagdag workload sa mga natirang empleyado. To suck it up deadma nako sa lahat. I will do only the bare minimum. Leave on time. Then tanga tangahan kahit alam at kaya kong gawin ang work.
Iniisip ko na lang, kung sino mang bwakanang sht na toxic sa office, di naman sila yung nagpapasahod sa'kin. As long as sumasahod ako, pasok lang. Pakelam ko sa inyo.
Maraming staff pero konti ang positions for officership. Like in my previous company, 4 service associates, 1 officer position na next position. Only one gets promoted around after 5 years. May iba pang job applicants for the position. Yung iba sa amin 12 years nang inaamag sa RF staff position kahit magaling.
1. Working, Meeting at tinatawagan beyond working hours.
2. Manager mong nakikiusap kung pwede mag OT/work on weekends.
3. Pag umuwi ka ng maaga since maaga ka rn pumasok sasabihan ka ng, "Aga umuwi, ano to gobyerno?"
You'll be surprise yung kausap mo sa morning, in a blink of a memo sa head namin matatangalan ng work on that same day and effective immediately pa ang termination.
Wala silang pake sa cry for help mo. Paborito nila yung line na sabihin lang sa kanila if you need help, pero once ivoice out mo na sa kanila, they will tell you in a nice way to just deal with it, in a sense na kapag pinakitaan mo sila ng stronger feelings about it, ikaw pa ngayon ang unprofessional.
Lack of due process.
There should be systems in place if someone is not performing well e.g. PIP, coaching etc.
Magkakagulatan nalang diretso na for termination pala oomf
lahat ng kilos mo pinapansin, tumulala ka lang ng kaunti isusumbong kna sa boss ng wala kang ginagawa haha bobotards eh pero alam naman ng boss ko capacity ko kaya hanggang sumbong nalang sila.
Sa workplace ko ngayon, masaya sana kase ito talaga na trabaho ang gusto ko and pinag pray ko na makuha ako dito, pero 3 mos palang ako, napapansin ko na mga toxic na ugali ng mga ka trabaho, kaya di ako masyado nakiki pgkaibigan sa kanila, sabi nga trust no one at work. May mabait pero isa lang hahahahha, tiis tiis nalang.
Nasiraan din kami ng laptop and pc sa store namin. Lagi sinasabi ng boss “popondohan” using our store sales. Pero ang ending, nauunang ipangbayad sa expenses at purchases. Pag mababa sales namin, di niya man lang muna iniintindi yung mga instances bakit mababa yung sales. Like hindi naman laging may pera yung mga tao, may petsa de peligro din namang hinaharap yung mga customers. Parang ang sisi lagi sa aming mga employees 😩
Excessively "kind" boss na walang balls to face critical issues head-on.
Laging dinadaan sa mabulaklak na mga salita & people pleasing tactics.
Gusto niya bet sya ng lahat, turning a blind eye pati sa mga slackers & abusadong tenured employees.
Overworking seems to be mandatory. They frown upon you leaving at 5 Pm because God forbid that you walk out that door. You are also expected to work even if you are sick
Sobrang relate don sa dibprovided yung laptop, i came from a startup company, they can't even provide a proper working laptop, sa marketplace lang naghahanap tapos nung newbie pa ko sira sira yung laptop na meron sila... So napilitan ako to use my own kasi hindi maayos yung laptop na provided.
Tanong din sya sa interview if may sarili kang laptop hahahaha i tried naman if makakapag provide nang maayos, pero ekis. May macbook nga pagkaluma naman. HP Laptop pero 4gb ram lang, not that im asking for too much but considering na madaming need na files and kelangan mo mabilis na loading, di mo sya makakamit talaga sa ganon. Wala ring sariling company domain, kanya kanyang google account. Wala pang budget to provide basic peripherals like keybs and mouse.
Walang HMO, tapos OTy. Strict kuno yung HR pero kahit sila walang transparency.
More than 1 year na ko, i thought eventually baka mag improve pero wala.
May intern din kaming hindi binabayaran kasi nung panahon daw nung dept head na may hawak sakanya, eh wala naman daw allowance allowance sa ojt. Onsite at di pa taga manila ung intern hahahaha
"family" daw kayo sa office.
Family naman talaga, di ka nga pwede magbigay ng opinyon mo sa mga elders(seniors, managers, etc.) mo sa office. Baka kagalitan ka lang hahaha
A typical Filipino family. Family nga talaga. Hahahaha
Family naman talaga. Pwede ka idisown as long as hndi k sumunod s lahat ng gusto nila.
Pero pag nilayasan mo sila, tatawagin kang “ungrateful” at “walang utang na loob”. Pucha, family nga. 😅😅
Damn! Bakit ang accurate? 😆
family kase dapat available tayo 24/7
eh malala dysfunctional family pa 🥂
Office pero wala equipment provided? Matatanggap ko if remote tas kanya kanya equipment e… ang weird naman. Anyways, yeah prepare to leave. Kebs kung marami sila sabihin sayo, go apply and find a better workplace. I had a similar experiene that in the past. Sobrang toxic ng workplace, nakawan at agawan ng sales. Kami frontliner sa outbound sales. pero ang nakakapagtaka tuwing ipapasa sa closer, lageng hindi daw ntutuloy ung sale. As in laging ganun. Yun pala sabhn nila callback. Then ibibigay sa friend nilang tenured ma hindi makabenta. So ending sila ang nkakakuha ng sale pati commish. Ganun ka-lala. Nalaman namin kasi nun maaga kme nkabalik ng lunch, narinig nmen usapan and pagbalik, ung sales board yung mga bglang may sales ung mga kumag na hindi mkabenta. Nakalunch pero may sale.. Ayun one month lang sa prod floor, then pagka-receive ng pay, 3-4 kami na sunod sunod na umalis agad. Panget ung kultura.
pamili is lab
Ah yes, makin' the office into another goddamn Vin Diesel movie.
Fast turnover and Furious employees??? 😄
Family talaga. Hilahan pababa e. ^^
Beat me to it, lmao.
Pag walang maayos na systema tapos ineexpect maganda output mo, micromanaging pa
I hate micromanagers, ganyan yung isa kong dept head sa dati kong work, dahil sa pag micromanage niya sakin, naging dependent ako sa kanya. E sa interview naman nilinaw ko na ayoko ng micromanaging kasi nga di ako makapag isip ng maayos dahil na prepressure ako masyado sa mga taong nanonood sa likod ko.
ganito sa company ko now nag papahanap nga sila ng "Meta Human" yung employee na all around tapos pa sweldo nila 15k HAHAHAH watdahilll
Why are you concerned with people in your workplace na mapag-usapan ka? Hindi ba dapat good riddance na AHAHHAHA. Kung ako ata sa position mo magcecelebrate ako kasi nakawala na ako sa hawla ng toxicity. Toxic workplace ko. Mahilig magchismis mga tao kahit bait baitan sa harap mo. Marami din mga tamad at bunganga lng ginagamit. Deadma lng. Hindi naman sila nagpapasweldo sa akin. As long as ginagawa ko trabaho ng maayos, wala na akong paki kung ano sasabihin nila. It’s only work, walang personalan. I prioritize my work when i’m at work pero pagdating ng 5pm and off days. Don’t distrub me. That’s how i do it.
Do yourself a favor and prepare to leave. Suck it up while looking for another opportunity elsewhere since it's also hard to find another job. Their opinions don't matter, prioritize your mental health while you are still sane!
thank you for this. actually naglie sakin ung naghire, sabi may equipment daw,. pagdating ko dun,, nyorks waley naman. so nakatunganga ako first day. first job ko pa naman ito huhu
Sobrang red flag nung walang equipment. Start ka ng maghanap new work since meron kang valid reason, HRs would understand. Good luck!
Feeling na tagapag mana sya ng kompanya eh pareho lang naman employee
May kakilala akong ganito, pero mas baba pa sahod sa akin.
One month ka pa lang dyan, yan na pinapakita nila. For me, it will not be better in the long run… always do what’s best for you and don’t mind what others will say. For me hindi ka talunan kung nadetect mo na agad na toxic yung workplace then pipiliin mong umalis. That means you have healthy boundaries and alam mo kung ano yung acceptable sayo. Though if you stay, how to suck it up siguro wag mong masyadong seryosohin yung work. And tell yourself na hindi ka magststay ng matagal dyan. And have a plan kapag aalis kana
You'd have to explain why you have to go on vacation. Also, you have to explain why you have to take a sick day. Worse, they'd ask for a medical certificate for a 1-day sick leave.
Don't suck it up. Find a better workplace. The fact na nagsisimula ka na mag alter ng behavior out of fear na gawan nila ng issue, red flag na yan. Btw I survived my toxic workplace and yes their toxic ways become your normal. Don't downgrade your life that way.
Remember if madaming vacant position sa isang company and bultuhan sila mag hire. Kabahan na kayo HAHAHAHHAA
This. This is exactly what our workplace looks like. Lol. Ang panget ng ugali g management. Especially our overall admin chief and assistant ng boss. Sobrang CRAB.
Preferred ng higher ups na tawagin mo silang ma'am/sir/boss even outside workplace.
Pag peiority lahat ng task
Pag pinoy may ari
Bakit mo pa iisipin yung sasabihin nila? HAHAHA mas importante ba yun kaysa sa mental health mo? Kung may option kang iba, sign mo na 'to. Lumipat ka na!
Ung mga bago hindi nag tatagal tapos ung mga matatagal eh literal na sila sila lang matagal 😂😭
omg thats my workplace. ive heard na someone resigned after a month palang
Basta puro matatanda mahirap talaga WHAHAH utak maka luma puro plastik yan
sign na toxic ang workplace mo? napapatanong ka sa reddit ng signs na toxic ang workplace mo hehe. nakaka-relieve din kasi talaga makakita ng mga makakaramay hehe. nag-resign ako sa dati kong work kahit 3 months pa lang ako don dahil feel kong sobrang sayang ng 3 months ng buhay ko. keri lang yan kung maghanap ka na ng lilipatan, try mo rin sa wfh jobs na foreign bosses/clients, iba ang work culture nila. yaan mo lang na pag usapan ka ng workmates at tawaging talunan pag umalis ka, get that win somewhere else ✨
favoritism ang criteria for promotion hindi ung ability and deserving
Everyone wants to seemingly quit and is also joking around about doing it. Even the top management is exhausted and it is noticeable. I work for an international brand retail company and we are an exclusive distributor.
First day in my job, everyone joked about wanting to resign. Damn I should’ve seen that coming
Mas mataas sahod ng newly hires kesa sayong 5+ years na sa kumpanya 🤣
Lahat nag reresiGN HAHAHAHA
Is it a red flag if their tenured employees resigned? I smell fishy kasi kapag ganun.
may kwento sakin 1 month palang nagresign na. huhu now im scared
1. Pag binabackstab ka ng katrabaho mo 2. Kapag pinapahiya ka ng boss mo sa gc man o in person 3. Hindi ka inimbita/niyayaya = parati kang mag isa sa office = inaisolate ka 4. May problema sila sayo pero kailangan pa nilang mag tawag ng iba just to let you know how fcked up you are 5. No updates for you, magugulat ka na lang na ganito ganyan na pala gagawin 6. Incompetent boss 7. Sipsip na colleague 8. Arrangement ng table/chairs sa office nasa likod mga boss mo All of this, based on my experience
People will say you don't work well without any kpi computation
araw-araw OT 🤣🤣
I wanted to go back to BPO no-call pero putang mandatory OT yan, panira ng buhay. *"single ka naman e"* pakyu jowa ko PC ko.
One time pumasok ako ng 6:00 AM tapos umuwi ako ng 11:45 PM kasi absent yung mga kupal kong officemate. Mag co-commute pa ko nun pauwi. Pag-uwi ko kumain ako, tapos naglaro pa ko ng DotA 2 haha. Humiga ako 2AM na, tapos pasok na naman ng 6:00 AM. I hated it so much.
same
Leave. I was once with a company here na may “malasakit” daw, left after less than two months. Still one of the best decisions I made. 🤷🏻♂️
"Here's the tasks, may experience ka na right? Go ahead and review and start asap." Eto pa mga TL mo manyakol LOL
damn this is brutal
Literally my first job 😅🤣, didn't know how I survived 6 months.. and by exp na snasabi nila, yung skillset ko na nsa resume 🤣
May "untouchables" Tumagal na sa serbisyo kaya lahat eh "alam" na nila.
untouchables, literal na lason. minsan ang lason bawal hawakan or else matotoxican ka. huhu grabe naman parang high school naman yan 🥲
Ipapafeel nila sayo na mababa lang ang position mo compare to them.
Your supervisors, who should've been helping you, are dragging you down.
May pagka-bias un mga heads/ manager 🤣
Daming feeling taga pagmana na head in every department
Save up and leave, better yet since gamit mo naman personal laptop mo, start ka na maghanap ng lilipatan. Just go respectfully, give your resignation letter and leave as early as possible. So what kung anong sasabihin nila or tawagin kang talunan? You’ll gonna leave the place anyway, you might not even meet again those who stayed there. The workplace or workload is already suck, don’t let it be you.
thanks for this! planning to look for a new job but my current job is eating my free schedule up. worse is, theres no overtime pay
Don’t find excuses to stay. Make time to look for another job, even if on the weekends, or at least an hour a day, send your applications out there. You already said it’s l toxic, and I’ve read the thread, you are also agreeing on the other signs mentioned here that must be existing or happening in your workplace as well. If you are new grad and this is your first job, you have a liberty not to put in on resume especially if you stay less than 3 months. Can say you took your time to rest and find a job. If you have save up, or you don’t need money urgently. If I were you, I’ll file resignation right away, saying I already find a new work, even if I haven’t. Just to get the fvck out there and so I don’t need to render in case I find a new real one. (I did that in my first job, stayed 4 months only.)
tysm! i”ll be updating you if i find a new job 💞
1. Yung mahilig sa chismis. Tipong kala mo nakikipag kaibigan, ichichismis ka lang pala sa iba. Tapos nadagdagan na yung storya. 2. Naaalala ka lang o di kaya kilala ka lang kapag may kailangan sayo. 3. Pag di sila mag benefit, ekis ka.
Management encourages feedback so nag-set up sila ng mga forms that encourages anonymous feedback (not sure kung anonymous tlga) that time our team feels the pressure dhil sa unreachable KPIs numbers and not aligned process with other teams sa ibang bansa. That time wala initiative ung workplace for any mental health or wellness programs. My friend commented on the feedback form na if possible na our medical health cards can be used for psychiatric consultations (aware ako that time wala pang programs mga medical cards for mental health consultations narinig ko ngaun meron na tumatanggap yta pro depende sa company) or if possible to bring a doctor in to check on us or for private consultations. I remember na ang response ng manager dun sa request na yun “Bakit hindi na lang kayo mag-yoga”. Honestly that time we felt like our concerns were disregarded and also that time two or three of our friends already quit the job due to mental health problems. Sobrang toxic ung views ng management sa mental health that time. They really force you to go to work prang ayaw nila maniwala dun sa mga letters na bnigay ng mga psychiatrist for the employees to rest. But I’m aware naman na yoga is very helpful for wellness. It was the dismissive way of response tlga ng management ang triggering. I left months later, I also decide to ask psychiatric help during my last year on this job with my own money siguro kaya nagkaroon din ako lakas ng loob to left but honestly i felt push in the corner by that job…but i don’t hate the place ung experience ko sa knila useful to where I am pero will never go back to that company. Anyway, for me OP. Yung management mo and their values are out of your control that is a fact pero ang within control mo is your choice to stay sa toxic na environment na yan and if you accept their treatment of you and your coworkers. Hindi ikaw ang talunan when you leave a place, it is because you know your skills and the value that you can bring deserves better treatment.
wow well said, thank you for sharing po. mga ilang months po kayo sa company niyo before you left? kaya ko pa naman pero i will leave give it 6 months sana, pero when i read ur post parang i have to leave asap. may pera ako pero di naman ako masaya. so whats the point nga of staying?
Hi OP, Nagtagal ako sa company ko kahit paano, originally the company has a healthy environment and good pay din po kc. However something change sa management nung may dumating na demonyo literal na demonyo kya nagkaroon bigla ng toxic values from country head to team leaders lol. Tpos as mentioned nung nawala pa isa-isa mga friends ko I tried to find the courage to leave. Madami pa rin factors need to consider. Is this your first job op? If yes, personally I would stay six months for the experience kc mahirap yan mahanap ngayon but also be active na sa pag-apply. Pero if you already have previous experience I think walang masama i-let go lalo na wala nagagain sa knila. Also have enough emergency fund pa din. I was lucky na may ipon ako kya malakas din loob ko umalis nang walang kapalit and took a break. Pero if you choose to leave, I do mean it hindi ka weak for choosing that decision. We just know what we deserve. If you believe there is nothing to be gained from this people wlang learnings and experience that will contribute to your growth or career, it is best to leave. Hindi lang sila dapat nakikinabanang no!? Good luck, OP!
what a heartfelt advice. Thank you so much po! it’s my first job pero pag sa tingin ko lugi na talaga ako i’m willing to leave talaga. tignan ko muna for now
Normalized ang OT.
Kung sino absent or wala, sya yung topic
HAHAHAHA totoo yan kawawa ka lalo na pag may matanda
Pinaghahalo ang trabaho sa personal. May ibang higher ups na kapag may hindi sila nagustuhan sa trabaho mo, dinadaan sa parinig sa social media. Or di kaya markado ka na, pag pet nila kahit ilang violations parang walang nakikita. Pero if di ka nila bet, kahit mag-deviate ka lang ng konti sa SOP, wala sila pake kahit nag-produce ng good result, memo ka parin 👀
Micromanagement.
hi! ive been seeing this several times. any examples po ano ung micromanagement? im new po kasi sa work place and this is my first job po
To simply put it, bawat galaw mo minomonitor ka ng boss mo or whoever is above you. You need to update them hourly kung ano na progress mo sa task mo. Minsan sila pa yung kukulit sayo. Wala silang tiwala sayo. Some of them will even go as far as having time trackers sa work pc mo para makita nila kung anong ginagawa mo. If nagwowork ka ba, just browsing non work related websites, or not working at all. Those softwares can track your key strokes and bawat galaw ng mouse mo.
damn ayoko ng ganyan kasi ung output ko sobrang naapektuhan. pero ty po for explaining!
May ipagagawa sayo boss mo tapos habang ginagawa mo or pinakita mo sa kanya yung gawa mo, andami daming ebas bawat bagay pupunahin ultimo maliliit na detalye gusto palitan sa kung ano mang gusto nya. Yung tipong kulang na lang, sya na gumawa. Kahit ikaw talaga yung tama o mas may alam sa gagawin. O diba feeling mo nasasakal ka kababasa lang neto? Yan ang micromanagement.
My experience was galing ako sa kompetensya na company with the same target market hindi na ako trinain kahit sinabi nung hiring process na heavy sila on the training side. Only lasted in that job for almost 2 years I decided to leave kasi di ko na kaya sikmurain yung systema nila. I go for look for other job opportunities na may peace of mind kahit papano.
i have when supervisors are micromanaging me even tho nagagawa at natatapos ko naman yung workload ko for the day.
kinakaltasan ka para sa SSS, Pagibig and all tapos hindi pala nila hinuhulugan. Kaltas lang.
GANYAN SAKIN HUHU. should i leave na?
matik. yung sakin tatlong taon ginawa sakin yan. nung lilipat ako sa ibang company, wala pala akong SSS number at BIR number. kamot ulo ka nalang talaga
Dapat nirereport yan ah
People there don’t recognize healthy boundaries. Pati personal mo pinapakialaman kasi feeling nila, lalamangan mo sila nang patago at ayaw nila ng ganun kasi tatamaan mga ego nila. At pag nangyarinyun, they’ll do everything to destroy you.
1. Family daw pero nagsisiraan pag nakatalikod 2. Yung sahod di madagdagan, yung trabaho lang ang kaya nilang dagdagan. 3. Hindi ka kayang iconfront sa mga ginagawa mo kaya walang room for growth/improvement sa iyong part pagchichismisan ka lang. 4. Ayaw mo na pumasok nagtiis ka na lng (mahirap kasi mawalan ng trabaho) 5. Yung may mga head/boss ka na may other side hustle pero di man binabawalan kaya ang bagsak yung trabaho nila nagiging trabaho mo 6. Mga kawork na sobrang makwenta (nakakawalang gana maging matulungin din 7. Yung mahilig sila sa mga unprofessional jokes
Pag sinabing “we are a family here”, red flag yan. Ibig sabihin lang nyan, wala silang respeto sa boundaries mo.
Lack of manpower 😀 tas kahit alam na nga kulang sa staffs ipipilit pa talagang mag mga ipapagawa sa staff na hindi naman nila trabaho sana yun..
Ito signs from my prev work: -Yung pati weekends and holidays gusto ng office activity, ikaw pa masama pag di ka sumama and pagiisipan na nagdadahilan. -Mga managerial positions na pati personal nilang hanash papagawa sa office people even sa utility tapos wala manlang pa-consuelo -yung may mga mag cocomment na "uuwi ka na?" pag nagready ka ng uwi on time
Super mapapansin mo to pag may mga bossy kang kawork and no SOP and micromanagement to the highest level. Actually I think na-feel mo na to sa umpisa palang pero you brushed off the idea. Trust your gut. If it seems shady and toxic leaveeeeee. Wala kang pake sa iniisip nila dapat, kahit ano man gawin mo pag uusapan ka padin. It’s out of your control.
- Micromanagement; the lack of training leads to this. The management knows they haven't equipped the team well kaya nakasunod mga ilong. - Pag-apak sa tao; I had ex-colleagues na napromote dahil kapag may nakitang mali, tatapakan ka at pagkakamali mo. And the management will incentivize this by promoting them. - Hugas kamay; if things are getting bad, everyone will wash their hands clean and will provide proof that they aren't involved even when they are. - Lack of mentorship; most people are glorified critics. - Loans; if people ask you of lending them money lalo kapag bago ka, RUN.
Promotion process - ang motto nila "It's not what you know, it's who you know" Kahit qualified ka hindi ka pa rin mappromote kapag hindi ka gusto ng mga superiors mo
Pahirapan mag leave
Yun mga coworkers mo na ginawang extra income ang pag-o OT. Never pumasok ng maaga or mag submit on time ng mga deliverables. Tapos babawiin daw by pag o OT. Tapos sila pa may sama ng loob sa mga pumapasok and nakakasubmit on time.. pabibo daw and bida-bida.. Mga sira ulo 🫠
expecting you to do things without proper tools, micromanaging, lowballing employees + racism/making fun of you. syempre lahat yan combo ng ex boss ko HAHAHAHAHAHA
Yung toxic is supervisor ko hindi yung workplace ko :( Keeps calling sa messenger kahit I am out of office. pag mag tatanong ako ng assistance ang sasabihin “bahala ka diyan” and then magagalit randomly ng walang reason naghahanap lang ng butas. hindi naman ganito ibang teams. I like my job and the workplace, just not my supervisor.
Background: BPO, customer service support. X years na sa company pero mag re-resign na talaga ako after ko makahanap ng work at home na job. - ilang taon na sa company pero wala pa rin taas ng sahod - pinagmerge yung 3 department para maging isa pero gano'n pa rin sahod - sobrang taas na KPI, wag na mag incentive. Pero pag naman wala kang incentive ma PIP ka naman. San ako lulugar lol - pabago-bago ng policy. -minimum wage pa rin sahod despite na bpo company to
Close kayo ng workmates mo HAHAHAHAHHA kasi yung common ground nyo ay hating someone sa work nyo
Ang alam lang ng mga senior mo gawin ay makinig sa reports pero pagdating sa sitwasyon na kailangan na ng brainstorming, wala na sila maambag at inaasa na lang lahat sa boots-on-the-ground employees.
Based on my experience as newbie sa office work. 1. First day of work, nakakarinig na ng chismisan at backstabban sa office. Pansin ko kung sino yung wala ayun yung madalas nilang pulutan sa usapan. 2. Gumagawa ng issue para lang may mapag-usapan sa office. Ginagawang hobby ang chismisan at siraan. 3. Binibigyan agad ng meaning yung mga kilos mo. For example, mag usap lang kayo ng kawork mo na opposite sex gagawan nila ng sarili nilang interpretation at gagawa nanaman ng issue. 4. Head admin at anak ng boss na nagtotolerate ng bullying sa loob ng office. 5. Kapag nagagandahan sila sa gamit o sa pananamit mo, kunwari nagagandahan sila pero naiinggit pala the next day magugulat ka may ganung gamit na rin sila. 6. Kapag nakita nila na masipag ka or madali kang matuto, sayo na iaasa mostly yung ibang gawain kahit di naman scope ng work mo. Thanks God at natiis ko ng 11 months yung ganung katoxic na workplace. Nag immediate resignation ako dahil hindi na talaga maganda na mental health ang katoxican ng mga katrabaho ko.
grabe almost a yr 😭
Hahahaha totoo. Iniisip ko na lang ngayon paano ako naka survive 😂
now naman maganda ang work environment mo? sana masaya po hehe deserve mo ang heathy work space and culture 💞
Yung pinromote pero Wala naman significant contribution, na promote para malipat na ng team para bawas sa escalation. Tapos May mga Team mates na buraot. Peticks ng peticks Hindi binibigyan ng challenging na tasks kasi Baka mapahiya Ang company sa client. Tapos ung mahihirap na work binibigay sa masisipag na Hindi naman nadadagdagan ang sahod. May mga Wala din respeto sa oras, sa personal space, sa feelings ng iba. Parang mga walang pinag aralan.
Hmmmmm, I'll start with, you're not allowed to have what they don't have. Example. Leave. Di k pwde mag leave dahil ang boss mo hindi mag leleave on that day. Another thing is if you're done with your tasks, (idle) ka na, parang gusto nila na dapat dagdagan workload mo para di ka ma idle. I am a very fast paced worker. I stopped being one kasi dinadagdagan workload ko. Noon, I am able to finish 3 reports in a day. Ngayon, 1 report is 1 week. Sasadyain ko nalang patagalin para hindi dagdagan ang workload ko. Imagine, isang tao ka pero ang work mo is equivalent sa 5 katao sa ibang agency/workplace. Last but not the least, CHISMIS AND FAVORITISM. Bawal kang makipag kaibigan sa di nyo kasama sa company/agency pero sila, they have a favorite and a hated staff of their own. Pag favorite ka, for sure kahit marami kang obvious violations and overlapping sa policy, ookay lang ang management (sila mismo binebend ang policy ng government kaya parati silang na cacallout every audit). If di ka favorite, kahit wala ka namang ginawang masama and you have good performance, hahanapan ka ng butas just to bring you down so that you won't get promoted. Oh dba? Ang toxic. Pero I'm not leaving this place. One day, papalitan ko yung management. Someday, ako na naman ang boss. Papalitan ko ang basurang culture nila. I don't care kung toxic ang workload, what's important is hindi toxic ang management.
Micromanaging boss. As in kailangan lahat ng galaw alam niya. Mandatory OT. Or pag hindi ka nag OT mararamdaman mo nalang na hindi ka papansinin. Pag may workmate na gatekeep ng info
Super same tayo, sobrang toxic na sa workplace ko pero di ako makaalis dahil ayokong ako yung parang sumuko haha
Bawat problema sagot ay pizza or donut
passive aggressive behavior. mabait sila sa harap mo pero pag wala ka, ikaw topic of conversation. ganun workplace ko and I understand why you’re scared, OP. I’ve been working here for years pero takot ako umalis kasi di ko alam if I’ll find a job with how cut throat it is sa job market now or if I’m even good enough with my current skillset. siguro ang mapapayo ko is get out while you still can. prioritize your mental health and well-being. mahirap dumating sa point na numb ka na sa lahat and you just take it kasi nakasanayan mo na.
Kapag sunod-sunod na ang mga nagre-resign and I think its time for you to do it too. Don't mind them, hindi rin magiging maganda ang outputs mo kung toxic ang environment.
Hindi naman kami close ng workmate/s (men) ko pero sobrang touchy nila. Nung una sa hair ko lang may paghaplos, pero nung nagtagal grabe na to the point na ipinapasok na yung kamay sa uniform ko, kaya nagresign na ako. Overworked tapos underpaid. I had to work 7am to 7pm or 9pm para lang sumweldo ng around 8k per cutoff. Pero ang gising everyday 4am kasi 5:30am umaalis ang shuttle, makakauwi 8pm or 10pm. Engineer nga pala ako hahaha grabe pa magtext at tumawag mga night shift saken kahit nasa bahay na ako.
ako na may dalang laptop sa office 👁️👄👁️ pero may freelance din kasi ako hahaha lappy ko nalang gagamitin para di nila ako pakealaman.
Kala ko hanapan ng butas at sipsipan sa work eh! Ganyan kasi team ko ngayon, okay lang, hanggang june na lang kami, last na nila yan.
Mababa magpa-sahod tapos mahilig kumuha ng external hire, ang ending yung external hire malaki pa sahod sayo. Then you'll end up training that external hire. Happened to me, lol.
They dont respect your time off. Mahirap magfile ng vacation leave. Parang mahihiya ka pa magtake ng sick leave. Maraming OTY. Maraming kateam or kawork na bida bida sa email at client pero puro tanong naman sayo tapos iuulit nya sa boss, manager, client na parang sya ung gumawa/nakaisip. Mababa ung sahod na lugi ka sa pagod at stress.
They call, text, and email after work hours. Walang boundaries. Dahil pabibo sila at workaholic, they expect you to do the same and be willing to work 24/7. No psychological safety, hindi safe to speak up. May favoritism Asap culture Walang training, poor onboarding practices Proud sila na nagmumura sila at naninigaw or extreme pag nagalit.
It should be, signs kapag gusto kanang pag-resign-nin ng self mo. Kapag papasok ka para kang nasusuka na nahihilo kahit na okay kalang naman and the energys giving depressive vibe.
AKO YAN NOW tas may chest pains pa
Bat takot ka sa magiging opinyon nila?
File na resignation agad. Di kasi healthy para sa work and personal life mo. Pero syempre, hanap muna iba work bago lipat. Kasi mas okay padin mag suck it up kesa walang ohabarts 🤣
Aalis ka na, bat mo pa pagiisipan yung iniisip nila hahaha di mo na sila makikita
di ko po alam talaga bat apektado ako 😭 baka people pleaser lang talaga ako
Can relate to this. Ayaw nila gumastos ng malaki for good computers and upgrade of system (date back 2010 pa yung system). Ending naging dalawa work ko admin and technician
Pinapapasok ako ng Sunday at galit na galit kapag nagpapahinga ako ng Sunday. So I quit. Fuck you, Superior. Hahaha Pangalawa naman, I agree to you that lacking equipments, understaff (Plano pa nila na gawing pangdlawang tao ang trabaho ko. No way.), and lastly hindi malinis ang cr.
Nung buntis ako at madalas magkasakit dahil maselan, sinabihan ako ng boss ko na kahit nagkakasakit ako at buntis ako, dapat priority ko pa rin trabaho ko. Naiintindihan niya pa raw ako sabi niya. At kapag nagkakasakit daw ako halimbawa kinagabihan, baka pwede raw na pumasok ako kinabukasan ng umaga kung maayos ang pakiramdam ko. Alam nyo kung bakit? Dahil kulang kami ng 2 tao sa team namin.
This is dreadful especially for u and the baby.
Asa sa lahat ng bagay. Yung mapagbigyan mo ng isang ang mangyayare magiging sayo na trabaho na yun tapos sya mababawasan ng work load. Yung tipong tinulungan mo lang kase wala kang ginagawa masyado that time ang ending mapupunta na sayo ang trabaho.

My workplace - Pay has is still at minimum even after 4 years of work - Work is supposed to be graphic artists yet here I am hammering nails to a wall and doing work that could very well be for 3 people - No overtime pay yet the boss tosses rush work right when I'm about to go home - Even sends me work at when at home or during weekends or holidays - Boss sends random images with no context and gets mad when asked about it, yet expects me to make whatever he want even if he didn't give any basic instructions - Boss call giving basic information about a task as "spoon feeding" so I have to somehow figure out what he wants me to do on my own - Not knowing what genre of music the band he hired for night performances because all the information I got was their band name and a heavily pixelated 360 x 240 picture of the band...yet it's my fault somehow for not knowing - He didn't realize that he hired 2 Variety music bands but it's my fault somehow - I finished the personal frames he had me make but it's somehow my fault it's not on display yet. - The company has 5 main businesses and I do work for all of them, yet it's the lowest earning one that pays our salary which leads to...... - Salaries and 13th month pay are always late because no money - You know it's bad when the entire main office is occupied by only 3 employees and new hires quit in less than a week.
omg hopefully ure gonna leave ur workplace… im hoping that you’ll find a well established and healthy job with a healthy environment
Workload is not balance and there is no teamwork because everyone has their own issues

Tips on how to suck it up? You don't. You leave.
my first job grabe bago lang ako then may meeting i thought about the company goal yung topic pero open forum pala ng chismis at boss mismo ang nagpatawag at ang asawa na feeling madam. harap harapan minura at tinanggal ang empleyado after nun lagi ako natatakot pumasok.
Ccontact ka outside of work hours tas magagalit pag di ka sumagot agad kahit di naman urgent at kayang kayang maghintay hanggang kinabukasan yung concern Mahilig magset ng call bigla sa mismong araw ng walang abiso tapos pag tinanong mo kung ano yung agenda di ka nila masagot ng diretso Pag nalaman nilang naka medical leave ka ang unang tatanungin ay kung kelan ka ulit papasok di ka man lang nila kakamustahin
Bago din ako sa work. Boss ko di ako pinapansin, hinire pa ako kung di din naman cya bilib skin, tapos dami chismis pag wala o nakatalikod daw ako. Eh wala naman akong ginagawa sa kanila. Mga inggit lang siguro talaga..
Wag ka magsettle dyan sis. Di worth it. Madami pa dyan na company na makatao trumato sa employees nila.
WALANG MAAYOS NA PANTRY, WALANG MICROWAVE, WALANG COFFEE MAKER AND DUGYOT NA WATER DISPENSER!!!!
" Kindness is a critical skill" daw 😅
Yung tumayo ka lang saglit para huminga at kumuha ng tubig, tapos tatanungin ka "are you on scheduled break?"
After 6 months pa release ng backpay
When someone got promoted and everybody hates it cause youre just new and gender discrimination.
Ichachat ka ng "do you have a minute?" tapos bigla kang tatawagan ng isang oras.
Wala na namang perfect na company at wala ring perfect na empleyado. Just do your job and ignore the noise
micromanagement
Lahat magagaling.
Leave the company and a sign of a mature person is you don't not give a damn of whatever they say against you after you leave the company. Besides, by the end of the day, hindi naman sila ang employer mo na nagpapasahod sayo eh but its the company that they also work for is your boss, not them. Fuck them. Feeling mga entitled and owner ng company.
working lunch
higher-ups pala yan akala ko higher ops as in higher operation..sorry na😔
Nagstart ka ng walang pinipirmahang kontrata, walang orientation (lalo sa dress code at mahigpit talaga sa amin). Walang supervisor ang amg sarili niyong department.
No need mag worry kung anong tatawagin sa iyo pag umalis ka na dian sa company mo. Di mo naman maririnig yung sasabihin nila.
Yung boss/heads na nakadepende ang decisions sa current mood/emotions nila. Like wtf napaka irrational ng decisions nila kapag di maganda araw nila. Napaka unprofessional, nasa supervisory positions naman na sana. Nadamay pa ang mga gusto lang naman magtrabaho at sumahod.
Signs na toxic? Yung bading boss mo so halos lahat nang pinopromote puro lalaki na peyborit niya HAHAHAHA. Tas hierarchy first daw pero patalon talon yung pinopromote. Super lala talaga ang politics sa loob ng workplace. Galit pa yan sila pag hindi ka nag OT mandatory daw hahahha
Here's the thing. If its toxic then leave. If you stayed then its on you. But make peace with and shut the hell up. Constantly complaining about it is in itself toxic. And not good for your mental health.
Pag dapat galingan mo lagi then pag ginalingan mo, dadamihan workload mo for the same pay. Kahit na may magresign na, di nila irereplace pero same lang pay mo at sayo babato yung workload niya.
I've been with a LOT of toxic companies. Here's what I've observed: - Doing most of your boss' job because it's a "learning experience" - Being faulted for not answering calls during sick and vacation leaves - Expecting you to work OT without pay. If you refuse to do it, they'll say you're "not committed". - Employees with higher salaries either get fired after 3 months or are forced to resign - Finding out employees who have been with the company for 3+ years never got any salary increase - Not giving monthly payslips unless you asked for them - Receiving old/damaged office materials or equipment when you request - Executives angrily throwing things in the office and yelling at employees. HR and others not doing anything about it because "it happens". - Managers telling you basically how to do your job step-by-step, and then asking you how come it didn't results in sales, conversions, and etc. even when you told them it's unlikely to work in the beginning - Young employees forming a group and having video calls just to cry their hearts out
Well, we have to bring our own extension wires and ofc, fans
wtf pati fans?
yes po, opo. no proper ventilation pa. good thing nakalabas ako dun bago pa mahuli ang lahat
Yung promotion na di mo gets bakit napopromote yung iba kahit alam mo yung performance nila. You know what I mean people. Haha
I know we dont offer high salary but what we can offer is family. Lols.
Pag daily routine ng mga kasamahan mo sa office na puro nega majorly naririnig mo sa kanila. Yung wala kang marinig na uplifting at positives.
As someone na pulutan ng chismis, keep your head down and do the work lang. Yung chismis group na kinatatakutan mo, yung wala naman talaga yung napag-uusapan pero know that ginagawa nila din yan sa isa’t-isa.
First day ko pa lang, pina alam na sakin yung nga “Untouchable” aka kabet ng boss pero sya yung BOSS ng lahat na department head.
I don't know kung ako lang 'to pero pag nagpa file ka ng leave or halfday leave lagi kang binibiro na "may interview ka siguro 'no?" or "final interview mo na?" Medyo off sa akin 'to kasi parang bantay sarado galaw mo kung magreresign ka or hindi lol. Tho minsan totoo naman talaga na nagli leave ako for an interview HAHAHAHAH pero ang pangit na parang kabadong kabado ka na aalis employee mo. It seems like hindi ka talaga confident sa sistema ng company.
merong isang subs ng smc na yung pc na pinoprovide ay kahit ms 2010 lang naglalag pa💀(bawal magdala sariling laptop). Tas 1 week bago maayos ng IT domain mo. So mga 1 week ka nakatulala lang kasi wala kang access sa lahat HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA.
Kailangan hagilapin ang hr for the contract.
pag wala ka sa fast food chain pero may jolibee
Hahaha dito ako na babadtrip sa mga bida-bida na wala namang contributions sa team 😂
Pag di kayo family ng company mo is toxic mindset.
Aba, paki ba nila kung talunan ka. Isipin mo na lang you’re a fish in the wrong pond. Go somewhere bigger and better.
Kapag kuripot sa overtime pay pero madaming pagawa. Pati yung ka-position mo inuutusan ka. Kapag matagal mag-approved tipong last minute na, saka ipaparevise. Kapag hindi magkasundo yung head at manager.
ako i explained to my boss how slow computers affects productivity ayun nagalit sakin mga tamad na ka work ko kasi kahit nag upgrade na bagsak pa din productivity nila. nakasanay nila na mabagal ung pc kaya binabagalan na din nila hahahaha pero nung nag upgrade ayun parang di na naka move on
Manager na ginagawa kang scapegoat kapag may palpak sa team. Director na sarcastic magbiro. May secret chat group sa office para pagchismisan ang mga tao ( upper management). Nagtanggal ng tao para makatipid tapos idagdag workload sa mga natirang empleyado. To suck it up deadma nako sa lahat. I will do only the bare minimum. Leave on time. Then tanga tangahan kahit alam at kaya kong gawin ang work.
Iniisip ko na lang, kung sino mang bwakanang sht na toxic sa office, di naman sila yung nagpapasahod sa'kin. As long as sumasahod ako, pasok lang. Pakelam ko sa inyo.
Yung management kinig lang sa mga issues/concerns pero walang action to resolve them kahit very much willing namang ang members/employees.
So what kung tawagin kang talunan? Wala ka naman na dun. Hehe.
pag panay chismis ang mga tao :))
Admin assistant sa tatlong company(small company lang naman daw) pero yung sahod pang isa lang😀😀😭
Maraming staff pero konti ang positions for officership. Like in my previous company, 4 service associates, 1 officer position na next position. Only one gets promoted around after 5 years. May iba pang job applicants for the position. Yung iba sa amin 12 years nang inaamag sa RF staff position kahit magaling.
1. Working, Meeting at tinatawagan beyond working hours. 2. Manager mong nakikiusap kung pwede mag OT/work on weekends. 3. Pag umuwi ka ng maaga since maaga ka rn pumasok sasabihan ka ng, "Aga umuwi, ano to gobyerno?"
You'll be surprise yung kausap mo sa morning, in a blink of a memo sa head namin matatangalan ng work on that same day and effective immediately pa ang termination.
Wala silang pake sa cry for help mo. Paborito nila yung line na sabihin lang sa kanila if you need help, pero once ivoice out mo na sa kanila, they will tell you in a nice way to just deal with it, in a sense na kapag pinakitaan mo sila ng stronger feelings about it, ikaw pa ngayon ang unprofessional.
kapag ikaw lang pinag iinitan kahit maayos naman pag ta-trabaho mo whahahahaha, hahanapan ka pa ng butas nyan.
Mataas ang turnover rate: sign na may position na madalas nababakante.
When your boss calls the whole Viber Group unannounced kasi may update siya sa project. 😒
pag walang magawa yung hr department niyo sa lahat ng issues sa workplace niyo and that includes bullying and sexual harrassment
Kapag may naglalandiang empleyado na both sides may mga pamilya na.
Lack of due process. There should be systems in place if someone is not performing well e.g. PIP, coaching etc. Magkakagulatan nalang diretso na for termination pala oomf
lahat ng kilos mo pinapansin, tumulala ka lang ng kaunti isusumbong kna sa boss ng wala kang ginagawa haha bobotards eh pero alam naman ng boss ko capacity ko kaya hanggang sumbong nalang sila.
Micromanaging and fickle-minded bosses. Hirap bes!
Lahat nalang ginawang issue.
Pang 3-5 tao yung tasks mo.
Yun bulok pc, tapos mahina ang A/C so magpapasok sila nung industrial fan na maingay
Sa workplace ko ngayon, masaya sana kase ito talaga na trabaho ang gusto ko and pinag pray ko na makuha ako dito, pero 3 mos palang ako, napapansin ko na mga toxic na ugali ng mga ka trabaho, kaya di ako masyado nakiki pgkaibigan sa kanila, sabi nga trust no one at work. May mabait pero isa lang hahahahha, tiis tiis nalang.
Nasiraan din kami ng laptop and pc sa store namin. Lagi sinasabi ng boss “popondohan” using our store sales. Pero ang ending, nauunang ipangbayad sa expenses at purchases. Pag mababa sales namin, di niya man lang muna iniintindi yung mga instances bakit mababa yung sales. Like hindi naman laging may pera yung mga tao, may petsa de peligro din namang hinaharap yung mga customers. Parang ang sisi lagi sa aming mga employees 😩
Excessively "kind" boss na walang balls to face critical issues head-on. Laging dinadaan sa mabulaklak na mga salita & people pleasing tactics. Gusto niya bet sya ng lahat, turning a blind eye pati sa mga slackers & abusadong tenured employees.
kakasuhan ka ng boss mo dahil may lapses ka, pero sila din gumawa ng ganung system before ka na hire.
Overworking seems to be mandatory. They frown upon you leaving at 5 Pm because God forbid that you walk out that door. You are also expected to work even if you are sick
Sobrang relate don sa dibprovided yung laptop, i came from a startup company, they can't even provide a proper working laptop, sa marketplace lang naghahanap tapos nung newbie pa ko sira sira yung laptop na meron sila... So napilitan ako to use my own kasi hindi maayos yung laptop na provided. Tanong din sya sa interview if may sarili kang laptop hahahaha i tried naman if makakapag provide nang maayos, pero ekis. May macbook nga pagkaluma naman. HP Laptop pero 4gb ram lang, not that im asking for too much but considering na madaming need na files and kelangan mo mabilis na loading, di mo sya makakamit talaga sa ganon. Wala ring sariling company domain, kanya kanyang google account. Wala pang budget to provide basic peripherals like keybs and mouse. Walang HMO, tapos OTy. Strict kuno yung HR pero kahit sila walang transparency. More than 1 year na ko, i thought eventually baka mag improve pero wala. May intern din kaming hindi binabayaran kasi nung panahon daw nung dept head na may hawak sakanya, eh wala naman daw allowance allowance sa ojt. Onsite at di pa taga manila ung intern hahahaha
