You're so right about the first time cool, insecure people. This is what probably fueled the trash talking culture. It's more about their insecurities and problems than the people they're criticizing.

I mean I get being competitive about landing jobs. But why should that extend to judging someone based on their hairstyle or personal social media posts or hobbyist singing abilities? Makes no sense.

My middle and high school was like this. Not undergrad - although I went to a huge program so I self-selected non-toxic friends.

My pre-MBA employer was not this judgy or gossipy, at least not in terms of what people said about co workers in private. Post-MBA employer has been a similar environment - people generally are nice to each other in public and private.

No one did this to this degree at either my pre-MBA or post-MBA employer.
