Toxic Work Culture and Poor Management - Senior Manager Edwards Lifesciences Employee Review

Lack of Management training that develops employees professionally. Highly political and toxic environment that focus on personal gain rather than collaborative culture. Low trust environment that hinders work and employee satisfaction as well as mental health. Extreme lack of leadership that creates a reactionary tactical approach (with no clear strategy and goals) and creates confusion, as well as no clear path to growth. Career growth and professional development is informal and depends completely on relationship with manager. As managers change years of work and specific career path need to be reestablished, no consistency in career development. Lack of leadership contributes to managers, including Directors becoming focused on personal gain given there is no clear unifying vision. The meaningful nature of the work is overshadowed by a toxic work culture. Zero work life balance (no flex time).
