Toxic culture with undermining management and gatekeeping - Estimator Structor Group Employee Review

Upper management (my experience) may create barriers for your growth through control and gatekeeping rather than collaboration. Employees who are strong problem-solvers or who challenge can sometimes face dismissive or disrespectful treatment, even in public settings, which often reflects broader cultural and leadership issues within the company. In these environments, internal politics and self-preservation may take priority over teamwork, client relationships, and achieving the best overall project outcomes.
