How do yall get an honest feel for a company’s culture before you accept an offer? I've tried asking but I feel like I'm just getting generic answers, I need details.

I pretty much just read through the employee reviews on Glassdoor. If everything looks good and I haven't picked up on any red flags during the interview process, I cross my fingers that I'm making the right decision and accept. It's next to impossible to know what a company is truly like until you start working there.

In my opinion, you won’t really know until you work with the team. I’ve had experiences where I had questions about the team and company culture. Even after a virtual call with team members, everything seemed fine, but once I started, things were different.

This is much harder that people acknowledge. I have heard that some people ask to do a culture interview with someone on the team, but I've always been a little too scared that this would create a red flag for the employer. I'd love to hear what ideas others have!

I would love those details as well. I am currently looking for employment in my field but outside of direct patient care. After 20 years I need something different but dont really know how to look

I honestly think the only way you can fully know about a company culture is to work there for a while. It's just the nature of the beast, some things will remain opaque until you experience them firsthand. However, if you visit the premises while interviewing you can often get a sense of the place and pick up on a lot of things. Asking about it probably won't elicit much, obviously people will give the most benign answers.

definitely try browsing linkedin, glassdoor, google or indeed reviews

I just left a very toxic work place.
The crazy thing is they were just named the best local municipality to work for. It's upsetting. They advertise a "culture" but don'tapply it. It felt like a used car sales pitch, I was sold a dream but given junk. I am constantly replaying moments. I have read so many books and everything leads to they were the problem. How do I recover from this?
