Who’s to Blame for Pakistan’s Toxic Work Culture? | The Other Side W/ Farhan Malik x Sohail Zindani ‪@RaftarNow‬

In this hard-hitting podcast, Farhan Malik sits down with Sohail Zindani, to dissect the hidden truths of Pakistan’s corporate culture. From the origins of the 9-to-5 system, the crisis of labor productivity, toxic workplaces, and the failure of HR, to the deeper questions of professionalism, responsibility, and the brain drain, this conversation pulls no punches.

Why is Pakistan ranked at the bottom in global productivity?
Why do incompetence and “bullshit” thrive over merit?
How are our schools and homes killing individuality and decision-making?
And what does it really take to build courage, competence, and clarity in a collapsing system?

This is not just about bosses and managers, it’s about all of us, employees and leaders alike. Watch till the end for raw truths, personal stories, and uncomfortable questions that challenge the way we see work, loyalty, and responsibility in Pakistan.
