It’s wild how every time a toxic person finally leaves, there’s another one ready to take their place. We had someone on our team who micromanaged, spread gossip, and thrived on power trips. When they finally left, I thought we’d breathe easier. Instead, someone else filled that role almost immediately, like the dysfunction just needed a host. It makes me wonder if it’s not just about individual personalities, but something deeper in the system that encourages this kind of behavior. Why do toxic dynamics seem to persist no matter who’s in the seat? What do you think... is it the people, or the culture that creates them?

Toxic people like and promote other toxic people.

Culture begins at the top and trickles down. If the management and leadership are toxic it affects the whole work dynamic. Direct reports are either silent and afraid to speak up, or you see the majority following the same types of behavior as that is what is being reflected.

It sounds spiritual. Pray and cast it out.

It’s crazy isn’t it? Some people thrive off the power of it all. The culture definitely forces this on people as they see it as a a way to get promotions, pay rises etc.

I’ve had this before, either a new toxic person comes in or someone who was previously great changes for the worse

Folks, need some advice here. I got my hike letter at Unilever and it looks like the hike is only on the basic salary (as per the letter) and not on entire fixed (basic + hra + other). I joined the company only last year and I'm trying to understand if this is the usual thing here. I feel I have been low balled because I took the offer last year being convinced that another hike was on the way. Should i have a conversation about this with my Manager?

Hello fellow SAP Consultants!
I am SAP HCM consultant having 4.10 years of experience. I feel that this module doesn’t have any growth. My first switch took me to 9LPA from 6LPA and now the second switch is being offered for 11.5LPA where I can see my fellow friends in SAP having more than 15LPA at the same experience on their second switch itself. Should I be worried about my skillset? Any insights would highly be appreciated. I feel stuck.
