Our manager expects us to be on call basically 24/7 — emails at 10 p.m., Slack messages on weekends, and guilt trips if we don’t respond. He says, ‘That’s what dedication looks like.’ Is this just part of modern work culture or flat-out toxic?

If this isn’t included in your job contract then it shouldn’t be an expectation! If your manager needs people working on the weekend then they should hire someone to cover the weekend..

Yikes, that sounds toxic to me. I think you all need to discuss at work what your actual role responsibilities include and really stand up for yourself
