I need a job and the chances to get a good position are slim due to several reasons. I got an interview today, loved the manager and the possible coworkers but one of the supervisors gave me an off vibe. Went back home and did some searches, sure enough I found out that the supervisor is the reason behind the high turnover and is personally related to the manager.
Should I suck it up until I get back on my feet or this is a recipe for disaster?

Take it if offered and keep looking while employed.

What is the "supervisor" ? When people use this term I feel like they work in a call center or at Costco.

If you will be reporting to the manager, then you should try it out and see. Of course it's a bad situation when the manager's manager is terrible and the manager can't protect or shield from that.

Op was being general.
Sometimes you have to post and be unspecific because being more specific is too recognizable.

-Not op, but someone who stays general and then gets annoyed at people picking at those areas of my question.

OP here, I cannot be more specific, it is a family run company known in that very specific field so it could be identified easily. Manager is CEO and the technical expert, relative is hr/project manager so I will report to both

It is a very interconnected and specialized field. My impression is people stay at the place until they get the training they need and good connections. As soon as they are ready they move to bigger companies (and privately complain in Glassdoor's and similar)

What search did you conduct? I am curious what kind of internet searching reveals that info?

There are websites like Glassdoors in which people post anonymously reviews of the salary, workplace culture, interview experience etc

Pp here.

Top websites to find, read, and analyze workplace reviews include Glassdoor, Indeed, and LinkedIn, which provide anonymous employee feedback on culture, salary, and management. Specialized platforms like Comparably (culture/compensation), Fairygodboss (women-focused), and Blind (anonymous professional community) offer deeper, industry-specific insights.
