That’s just it … I don’t want adjust or bend for any of this bs anymore. I know I am excellent at what I do and any org would be lucky to have me. It’s a job not a popularity contest.

Excellent post. When this happened to me I felt like I was being gang raped at work mentally and emotionally on a daily basis.

Too bad badges of honor can’t pay for groceries.

I still have nightmares around what exec leadership did to me. Eventually was booted from my job. After 600 job apps I’ve given up looking for a new position . I’ve gone from a 6 figure job to dogsitting—I’ll be lucky to make $8k this year. Humiliating

This has happened to me. I think I walk into meetings with a genuine collaborative and collegial spirit and always for the greater good of my employer. But, I think this can be misread for showing off or grandstanding. Taking time to get stakeholder engagement can sometimes help

Happened to my friend and it’s such a betrayal. What can she do now ?

a very, very expensive badge of honor, which means I will not have enough income in retirement.

Thanks. I needed these kind words. I spoke too much about things that weren’t right , and I was terminated last week after bringing it up. First I was placed on 3 weeks admin leave. No access to my laptop or phone. Told I cannot speak to my team. I was interviewed, never told what the complaint was and terminated on Friday.

Do the people ever feel bad for like treating someone that way :( like do they ever realize that wasn’t a kind thing to do it leaves a lot of trauma

I feel like you are speaking directly to my experience. Thank you. It’s been a year and a half and I still don’t fully have my confidence back, or a full time job.

Thank you for speaking on this 🖤 My inner critic has never been so loud! I feel like I’m failing, but the data says otherwise. My department and I doubled revenue, utilization and member growth this year, but most anything I do is met with criticism. I was yelled at and berated in front of our entire office (with other companies inside). There’s always an excuse to not bonus me. I feel the axe looming daily.

Go make money and don’t do things beyond your salary. Some organizations actually encourages you to be innovative and do things way beyond your swim-lane and duties and they’re equally toxic, as a matter of fact even more malicious. Before I joined the corporate world I learned earlier to code switch and not help build someone’s dream beyond of what I agreed on when I signed my contract. And because of that I was also bullied out lol.

Excellent way of articulating what happens so much without anyone saying it out loud. How do you explain it is the question.

oh my gosh. You mean there’s a whole group of us who are dealing with this? Great. Maybe I’ll actually be able to find a lawyer referral.
