Cutthroat Culture

Cutthroat culture refers to a workplace environment where competition is intense and collaboration is scarce. In such settings, employees often prioritize personal success over team goals, sometimes engaging in aggressive tactics to outperform others. This environment can lead to distrust, stress, and reduced morale, as individuals may feel pressured to sabotage or undermine colleagues to advance. While it might boost short-term individual achievement, it generally harms overall organizational cohesion, innovation, and long-term success.
