Management within the department lacks objectivity and transparency. The department head appears to rely heavily on feedback from a select individual rather than listening to the team as a whole. Concerns raised were not addressed openly, and there was little effort to facilitate constructive discussion.
The team culture tends to be cliquish. If your working style or approach differs from the majority, especially as a new joiner, you may feel excluded or subject to negative talk. This creates an uncomfortable environment where open communication is discouraged.
Attempts to raise these concerns did not lead to meaningful change. Instead of resolving issues directly, feedback was often dismissed, and responsibility was shifted back to team members.
Overall, leadership transparency, fairness, and open communication need significant improvement.
