Leave a workplace that's become toxic

Short-term — weeks to months
Context

The environment has deteriorated — leadership is inconsistent, morale is low, and I leave most days feeling worse than when I arrived. The pay is stable and walking away means uncertainty, but staying is slowly doing real damage.

Goal

Work out whether the cost of staying outweighs the risk of leaving before I have something new lined up.
