It's not about corps vs startups. It's about having processes, good communication, dialogue, empathy. And it's also your manager's job to protect the team from externals that keep interrupting and making adhoc requests. If you don't feel safe in ignoring calls and replying with "I'm busy now, schedule smth today please", I consider that a highly toxic workplace.

I guess every job I've ever had has been toxic then. Juniors and to some degree mid-levels don't usually have any say in things like when to meet

from what you describe it does sound like a nightmare, but you’re ignoring or mocking people that tell you that it is not the norm

How am I ignoring or mocking anyone?

I got that impression from your reply “lol that’s funny, you’re funny” to a completely non humorous comment

Then you took it incorrectly, its mocking my employer more than anyone.
