Toxic leadership and constant unprofessional behavior - Associate Merchant Walmart Employee Review

From June 2025-Sept 2025 67% of the women's apparel team left. A management team member frequently speaks negatively about her team members in meetings and casual conversations, often criticizing or mocking them when they aren’t present. This happens so often that it made me and others extremely uncomfortable to the point where I almost reported her behavior to HR. It creates a culture of fear and distrust, and makes it difficult for anyone to feel supported or respected on the team. Beyond the unprofessional comments, when asked to contribute or take accountability, she becomes defensive and attempts to push others out instead of collaborating. Unfortunately, enables this kind of behavior rather than addressing it. Lack of leadership and unwillingness to intervene have driven many strong team members to leave. The office is barely holding together because of the toxic culture created by poor management.
