Leadership Failure: The Cost of a Toxic Work Environment - Anonymous employee Onnit Employee Review

Working at Onnit has been a disheartening experience. The toxic environment created by our current CEO, Travis, is alarming. His penchant for gossip and talking behind employees’ backs has led to a culture of fear and distrust. The stress levels are insane—everyone is constantly on the defense. With agencies being brought in left and right, it’s obvious the goal is to replace as many full-time roles as they can while ignoring the support needed for the existing team. This only adds to the anxiety, as employees feel their jobs are at risk daily. With senior leaders leaving in droves, it’s clear that the issues run deep. Rumors circulate constantly, and no one feels safe expressing their thoughts or concerns. Instead of fostering a supportive workplace, leadership seems more interested in tearing down morale. Unilever: it’s time to reassess your leadership team at Onnit. The current environment is unsustainable, and it’s no wonder that talent is walking out the door. Until significant changes are made, I would advise potential employees to think twice before joining. The company is bleeding, and it’s not just from turnover—it’s from a culture that needs serious healing. Furthermore, Onnit is no longer the same place it once was, lacking the passion and vision that initially captivated customers. To all of us who are still fighting the good fight within this toxic environment, we are in this together and hopefully we have new opportunities on the horizon.
