If they imply or even mention high turnover for the position - that's always a big red flag. Especially if the management team for that position is very small; usually indictive of them being bad managers/leaders

When interviewing for an IT job and the manager for the role is an HR person.
Idk I blocked his ass after I sent the msg
I took a sales job once, not knowing the HR lady was the acting sales manager because the other sales manager quit.
A few months later and I found out why he quit. The HR lady was trying to be the damn CEO or something. Couldn’t stand that bytch. Whole company was 6 months behind on filling orders.

Yup.
When they be like “this is a high intensity, high productivity” job.
It just means they are gonna be breathing down your neck asking you for more and more every day.
fukk them jobs
truth!Anything with buzzwords like "fast-paced" "dynamic" etc., is burnout central. Some jobs are designed to have high turnover. The onboarding process is quick and they don't want you staying long enough to get big raises. Burn N churn

Might have told this story before but back in five figures still trying to get 6 certs days I got called to come in for a job I had interviewed for and was sure they were going to offer me the job. Walking in I see one of the dudes I interviewed with walking out holding a box with stuff in it like 
. I'm like whats up breh where you headed. He said "today my last day " tossed his shyt in the backseat and burned out. I get in and the dude is basically offering me that guys job. I was like let me think about it. Left and never answered another one of they calls. They called and left me voicemails like everyday for two weeks.
Had another interview doing IT helpdesk for a collections company. They were using bootleg EVERYTHING. Cracked versions of windows. Cracked versions of esxi. They wasn't even using virtual center they just straight had like 6 esxi host being managed independently. No vmotion no HA no NOTHING ALL straight up local storage just the esxi host on some random 1TB drive and all the vm's on the same storage as the host. Cracked versions of microsoft office suite. They had all the collections people sitting around a big ass rectangular table....I mean some real medieval times game of thrones planning to take over westeros battle table. So I am sitting their waiting to do the interview and I hear people blurting out shyt on the phone like "do you want us to take your house Thomas? We will take your house if you don't pay." "Jennifer, think this through, who is going to take care of your dog when we reposes your house." "Adam. Adam. ADAM LISTEN GET US THE MONEY WE AINT YOUR IDEA OF A CHARITY" on some Arthur Morgan beating Thomas Downes to death shyt. I knew for fact I was not going to work there but in the interview I just straight up asked whats the deal with them using cracked software and they were like it is what it is. Oh and the place was right next to a cabaret club. When I pulled up to do the interview at like 2pm on a thursday it was a gang of nikkas in the building next door and a gang of strippers coming in for work.
Didn't really do an interview but years ago when circuit city was closing I used to kick it with a bunch of people working their. Was looking for a little part time job, just something to do a few hours on the weekend. Chick told me to interview at circuit city. I go up there next week and they even had a hiring sign out front. She signals the manager over and is like hey he would like to talk about a job and the manager was straight up like "what we closing stores we about to have massive layoffs"
. I said what you literally got a big ass hiring sign out front. He said man corporate put that up but yeah they just filed for bankruptcy a few days ago. All the employees around us were like 
. Then he called out 3 random white dudes names and laid them off right on the spot. All 4 of us walked out together, me like i couldnt even interview and them like in the span of 30 seconds i found out we not hiring we filed for bankruptcy and i got fired.

“We have a daily standup in the morning, and a debrief every afternoon. These meetings help the team stay in sync.
You and I will also have a weekly 1 on 1 and monthly 1 on 1(wtf). But these meetings are for you, I’m here to help you.”
I emailed the recruiter immediately after that and said I’m no longer interested in the position

Not really. I typically know what I'm getting into and look at glassdoor reviews prior to applying more prevalent now than ever.
Before this current job, I was unaware of temp to hire jobs not offering pto or vacation. My "former friend" offered me a job but the stipulations and him being a dıck made me leave and hop to another job, no 2 week notice and stop talking to him completely (he's a weirdo).
The temp agency paid him $1,500 under the table for anyone hired (kept that shıt secret).
Needless to say he was my manager and the nıgga had me doing all kinds of shıt unbeknownst outside the job description, working front desk IT and driving to other locations to do IT, encouraging me to stay late so I won't get fired, come in extra early so I can show I'm dedicated, everything was under the spotlight (camera) dead center at the entrance and I was being micromanaged to death.
My other coworker was really smelly (Indian of course) and worked right under me.
Nıgga (former friend) would passive aggressively talk all type of ways acting mad feminine plus i couldn't have no facial hair so I was looking like a pubescent swole bıtch while taking orders.
Nıgga lied about everything saying the job was easy and that he had my back but started sassying it once I got there. Too much to go into.
Edit: This job was also permanently temp, meaning nıggas working 10, 15, 20 years still temp having to save up for their own pto's, vacations, benefits so the nıgga set me up.
