yourself address a few questions like       
How is my bosss attitude towards you or the
other employees?        On what basis did they
hire you? Is it actually your qualification and
skills?        What is the mission and vision of
the company?        How reputed is the company
in the eyes of its own employees?        Is this
company transparent to its employees and
clients?        Inquire about their turn-over

The workplace is like a second home. If the hours
spent in office becomes torturing it nurtures
dissatisfaction that doesnt just stop in the
office. You carry that along for rest of your
time to home and outside. It affects your
personal life as well, you become nosy and
stubborn. Yet the best way to save yourself
from a toxic work experience is in the first
place to figure it out before you start it. Even
then if somehow you end up joining a toxic
workplace start to figure out the indicators that
hinder your peace and performance. If so, address
them and if they still persist it time you quit
this place!
