Long work hours and stress are just two aspects of toxic workplace cultures; other aspects include how employees interact with one another in the workplace. Just because he was not allowed to engage in dangerous behaviors, a techie recently described his awful experience at work. In his Reddit post, the Bengaluru-based guy disclosed that the first obstacle he encountered was the requirement that meetings be conducted solely in Hindi. Learning the language alone won't fix the problem because you won't be able to participate in inside jokes and cultural allusions.
The social circle of harmful qualities follows. He asserts that you will lose out on opportunities to interact with your superiors if you don't smoke during breaks or drink at office parties. The workplace balcony turns into a smoking-only club where important decisions are made without your presence. people were connecting across clouds of cigarette smoke while nonsmokers remained glued to their computers.
Likewise, if you declined drink at company gatherings, you would be referred to as a "boring one." You'll feel completely out of place and like a ghost at a gathering that's supposed to unite coworkers. The popular photo has spurred discussion about this poisonous society in which drinking, smoking, and making jokes in hindi are the only ways to succeed. With the race already rigged, how can anyone compete?
