Deleterious
Tony understood why Gibbs hated secrets. When it came to the job, it didn't seem to matter how minor the secret seemed it always backfired.
Tony could think of a number of deleterious secrets that had seemed harmless at first. The dinner Ziva hadn't bothered to invite him to had at first seemed harmless, but it had resulted in difficulty amongst the team especially in the trust department. Then there had been his undercover op, which had ended up being unsanctioned and becoming a problem for the whole agency.
Tony, of course, couldn't forget Ziva's personal relationship with Rivkin, which had blown up spectacularly in Tony's face when he tried to warn her about their findings in an investigation. After all that, Tony didn't like secrets either.
