toxic
toxic work environment. management stuck in the eighties. No room for innovation. Not a safe work environment for neuro divergent people. Verbal abuse and ghost lighting standard practice.

I hope you like drama
Highly underpaid and the union is laughable They do nothing for you and everything for themselves, you are expected to do it all and settle for nothing, and the drama is insane because no one gets “disciplined” or properly managed
