    The Power of Office Culture | Eric’s Rejection Story

    Asking for help is hard, and repeated rejection only deepens the struggle. But in the end, you don’t know what you don’t know—and realizing that can spark new ideas. ( or “can help blaze a new trail” or “can open doors”) etc.  In this episode, we sit down with Eric Silver, a fellow podcaster who found himself in the tech world during the mid-2010s, working for a quirky startup called Poncho. With a cute, weather-centric mascot, Poncho seemed like a perfectly safe place for a creative to thrive—until an unexpected promotion changed the workplace dynamics.  Eric shares his experience navigating office culture, dealing with an unprofessional manager who preferred to go off script, and recognizing red flags in the workplace. Speaking of red flags, Samantha quizzes Rebekah on some of the worst, and they read their latest and greatest listener review. Eric co- founded Multitude — a podcast collective, where he currently serves as Head of Development. Thank you to Multitude for hosting us for this interview! Check out their slate of shows here.
