“Ineffective Senior Management – Lacking Knowledge, Initiative, and Accountability; Burdening Juniors with Their Work” - Senior Associate Synergy Consulting Employee Review

Toxic Culture Rooted in Senior Management: The leadership thrives on overburdening employees with unrealistic workloads, showing zero concern for wellbeing. People are run to exhaustion with projects. Rampant Misogyny: Company retreats and events are nothing short of unsafe for women. Men get drunk, harass women openly, and treat female employees as jokes. It’s a pure boys’ club where sexism is normalized and brushed aside. Sham HR Function: HR is nothing but a mouthpiece for senior management—utterly spineless, incompetent, and incapable of protecting employees. Abusive Work Environment: Expect 14–15 hour workdays as the norm. There is no mentoring, only constant taunts, abuse, and humiliation from seniors. Severe Understaffing: Teams are deliberately kept thin to squeeze every drop out of employees, with no regard for sustainable workloads. Zero Work-Life Balance: Seniors have no life outside work and demand the same blind sacrifice from juniors, equating suffering with commitment. Verdict: An absolutely toxic, unsafe, and exploitative workplace that destroys morale, dignity, and mental health.
