Everything is urgent… until last minute it isn’t anymore.. At my work we have constant last-minute asks, and panic passed down the chain. At what point does urgency stop being necessary and start being toxic?

Scenarios where everything is made to feel urgent are a sign of poor management. If tasks are being dumped on staff at the last minute someone in management is simply falling down on the job. That kind of constant urgency isn't necessary, it's outright ineptitude and it can turn pretty toxic if not addressed or remedied.
