Recently joined an small company that diverted from everything it promised work-wise. I joined after multiple references who vouched for organization.

Upon entry, found out that there are long standing multiple legacy problems. Unreasonably hostile and aggressive leadership, beyond toxic workplace politics that has resulted in me being shoved into a sector for which I have no exposure, experience or anything otherwise. Essentially called in to be scapegoated.

Should I switch if get a offer?
