20+ Women Discuss What Are 'Dead Giveaways' That Your Workplace is Toxic

• Welcome to the workforce! Hope you like trauma… Unfortunately, women endure way more toxicity in the workplace than men. That's how it has been since the dawn of capitalism. Is it because we were meant to relax by a springwater stream and be fed fresh fruit off the vine and worshipped? Who's to know… But we have more than proven ourselves that we can hack it in the workforce. In fact, women are really bossing it up these days. That being said, there are countless little things that still give us the ick in the workplace. There are the obvious, like misogyny, inappropriate behavior, etc. But then there are the not-so-obvious, like a manager always being late for your meetings or the turnover turning faster than a windmill. When you're new to entering the wild and ambitious world of becoming a “career woman” you have to endure so much and nothing ever feels like enough. But we're here to tell you, you're killing it, and don't you dare lose that spark! You got this. Here's a list from women of the little things to watch out for that are “dead giveaways” that you're about to enter a very toxic work culture. Good luck out there, ladies!
