Jimmy Fallon's 'erratic' behavior fostered an unhealthy environment behind the scenes of The Tonight Show, say employees

The employees described the uncertainty as to whether Fallon would come to work cheerful and friendly or belligerent and mean, which would affect how everyone would behave in the office. Writers revealed degrading feedback from the host on their jokes and some staffers recalled witnessing him scold or belittle crew members.

They use that position of power to bully and treat the staff that way, and the network is aware of how they treat people. They not only continue to enable it, but they reward it,” one ex-employee said. Many attested to their mental health deteriorating, with three claiming to have experienced suicidal ideation as a result of the job. “Mentally, I was in the lowest place of my life. I didn’t want to live anymore. I thought about taking my own life all the time,” said another ex-employee.
