DECEMBER 22, 2015

You hire a candidate who seems perfect on paper and who seemed friendly in the interview. But after a few weeks on the job, they’re not working out. They don’t work well with the team, they gossip, and are arrogant. They’re a toxic employee, and they’re poisoning your team. Hiring a toxic employee is more costly than you think. A study conducted by Cornerstone OnDemand found that good employees are 54 percent more likely to quit when they work with a toxic employee.
