When teams avoid addressing toxic management

Our department has been hemorrhaging good people for eight months and in every exit interview they mention the same manager, but our leadership team keeps attributing it to market conditions and remote work challenges. I'm starting to wonder if we're all complicit in protecting someone who's driving talent away because addressing it feels too complicated and none of us want to be the one to force that conversation.

What we've seen
