Ah yeah, I worked at a place that had a clearly-communicated "sink or swim" approach. The stress level was pretty high the entire time I worked there. The stressfulness of the environment was exacerbated by them letting people go without either a) clearly communicating where people were falling short, or b) providing any resources whatsoever to help people grow/improve. The employee handbook they provided to staff was a 1-page PDF that said "DO IT". I'm not joking nor exaggerating - this was sent out after staff asked for any sort of employee handbook because they kept getting reprimanded for things they didn't know were expectations/rules. Not only does it make all the difference when you actually support your employees, it's also the law in many regions. Needless to say, I am always extremely appreciative of employers that support their team and help them grow.
