be scared of another man bruh
smh
intimidation is how they keep their jobs and rise thru the ranks, sadly
It's not worth it to be scared to talk to your manager. That is a dysfunctional relationship. move on to another company if you cannot move departments. Completely and utterly not worth it for a second.
They will retaliate and disguise it as some other reason. You need to look for a new job outside the company.
@veh, armchair lawyer much? What a joke.
Yes they will.
You should quit.
Just sue them.
Yesterday in the staff meeting (a dozen engineers altogether), my manager said rating doesn't come from him, it comes from HR and his supervisor. Then he showed a presentation, and it says 60+ days parental leave will trigger automatic below expectation rating. I said, are you aware this is illegal and you can be sued? and whoever telling you to do this can be sued, either HR or your supervisor. Don't get yourself into more legal issues, I am tired of suing you!
He really went quiet for a moment, acknowledging he is having legal issues with me, saying he will try to follow the laws.
He tried to save himself, but I said, if you are the one giving the rating, you will be held liable for this. If there is illegal instruction, you have your duty to refuse!
I hear ya. It’s horrible to feel that way. Too many managers are worried about themselves vs trying to develop and grow their employees.
