I was recruited into Landmark Structures under the impression that I would be joining a professional, team-oriented company with real leadership and growth opportunities. Instead, I walked into a toxic environment built on mismanagement, retaliation, and complete breakdowns in culture and process.
Shortly after starting, the Director of Project Management who hired me was effectively forced to resign for pushing back against internal dysfunction. He was subjected to constant micromanagement, excessive scrutiny, and internal sabotage until he had no choice but to leave.
I personally experienced hostile treatment from the Vice President of Estimating, who cussed at me in a professional setting. I filed a complaint with HR, and nothing meaningful was done. The behavior was tolerated at the highest levels of leadership.
From day one, the workplace was chaotic. Project managers were given unclear directives, shifting expectations, and no consistent systems. You are blamed for anything that goes wrong, even when executive decisions or broken internal processes cause the issues. The pressure is high, the support is nonexistent, and leadership actively creates conflict instead of resolving it.
The culture is not just stressful, it is mentally exhausting. One team member ended up needing inpatient rehabilitation due to the stress of the job. That is how unhealthy the environment is.
Since my departure, at least three other Project Managers have resigned. The turnover is ongoing, and nothing is being fixed internally. That is not a coincidence, that is a symptom of a company that refuses to address its leadership failures.
Landmark presented itself as a place for long-term career growth. In reality, it is a revolving door. You are lured in by compensation, but they will not invest in your success, mental health, or professional development. If you speak up, you will be pushed out or ignored.
