It’s it actually toxic if you really do benefit from it?

You don’t benefit from it. Having been in a place where positivity is a focus, it’s just ignoring any problems or criticism that can’t be addressed with a work harder attitude. It forces out anyone not drinking the Kool aid, and those tend to be better employees.

I fail to see how getting fired because you said your work environment was stressful is a benefit. Losing your income is a significant stressor.

Or even not getting fired, but seeing your coworkers being fired for that. Sure whole departments are going to be stressed now.

Work Reform

!workreform@lemmy.world

Create post

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

  • All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
  • Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
  • Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
  • We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

  • Higher wages for underpaid workers.
  • Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
  • Better and fewer working hours.
  • Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
  • Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
