Toxic Work Culture and Poor Management Practices - Consultant Bridgegap Consultants Employee Review

The company tends to blindly trust certain manager consultants, even when there are repeated complaints about their behavior. Despite multiple grievances from team members, such individuals are often rewarded instead of being held accountable. This creates a toxic environment where fear-based management is normalized. Although the director frequently talks about maintaining work-life balance, in reality, there is no such thing. Working weekends is expected, and managers constantly message on WhatsApp after hours, leaving employees with no personal time. There is very little opportunity for learning or growth — the focus is entirely on getting work done, often through pressure and micromanagement. Overall, the culture encourages unhealthy power dynamics rather than collaboration or respect.
