Terrible CEO - Anonymous employee Tonic App Employee Review

The team is absolutely 5 stars. The environment between colleagues is fantastic—collaborative, supportive, and genuinely helpful. If you’re looking for great coworkers who work well together, this is the place.

Unfortunately, the biggest problem here is the CEO. The leadership style is toxic, manipulative, and heavily biased toward those who agree with her opinions. There’s no room for dissenting voices, and she seems to only respect those who mirror her own intelligence and way of thinking. Soft skills, empathy, and humanity are nonexistent in her leadership style. The company is plagued by excessive micromanagement, which creates an environment of fear and doubt. Instead of empowering people to do their jobs, the feedback is often destructive, leading to burnout cases that are too frequent to count. The median tenure is a reflection of this. There's a complete lack of transparency and an inability to scale the company because leadership is overly focused on irrelevant details instead of the bigger picture.

Good team environment. Potential to learn new skills.

There is nothing to point out.
