Leadership at Consilio’s Minneapolis office creates a toxic work environment masked by a surface-level friendliness. Employees are often told how “lucky” they are to be there, but that illusion doesn’t last long. Management has a pattern of publicly berating employees, often in front of their peers. Feedback is not delivered professionally or respectfully, or privately, and dissent is punished.
Office culture is chaotic and poorly managed. At one point, a well-meaning attempt to address an ongoing issue via a polite office note resulted in a public reprimand. Incidents like this weren’t isolated; others were routinely singled out and disciplined harshly for perceived slights.
There is no consistent screening process for contract employees. Some hires raised serious concerns regarding safety and professionalism, including threats and alarming behavior in the workplace. Management failed to intervene early, and only acted when situations escalated severely.
Internal communication practices are careless. Emails were sent without blind copying, exposing employee contact information. This resulted in instances of inappropriate contact, harassment, and stalking.
Overall, the environment felt unstable, unsafe, and disrespectful.
