An Overall Toxic Work Environment

He is hands off in the worst way. Doesn't engage with employees. Unbelievably passive aggressive. Terrible at giving instructions and wants you to read his mind. Will call you out and embarrass you in newsroom meetings in front of everyone, but if you approach him in his office for feedback or to resolve he can't say it to your face and will stumble over himself to walk it back. Blames everyone but himself (corporate... another employee etc etc) for treating people badly. Terrible news judgement. Covering 6 vosots a day and just fronting one of them is the norm. Very limited live experience.

The culture got better but when I first arrived, coworkers were also mean and catty. That was better by the end when the mean people had left. It was an incredibly toxic environment. Things may be different now but the ND is still the same person and he is awful.
