First off I was told I’d have to relocate to take the job, so I did because it wasn’t a good one and I didn’t think I could pass it up. I relocated and reported for my first day just for them to tell me I worked remote, that I could come in but nobody on my team but my manager (who had nothing to do with my role) was in the city I moved to.
Anyways I applied and was hired for one role, when I started they had me in a different role reporting to people who thought I applied for the role I was given. I spoke to my manager, and his manager, and even a hugging manger and was told my placement was an accident and that they would help me transition into a role that better suited me. I was at first told I had to wait the 6 months before I could be transferred and then I was told I didn’t because my placement wasn’t my fault. I was told to find jobs on the internal website I’d be good with and send them to both my manager and my managers manager, as well as the bothering manager. I repeatedly check back in over the next 3-6 months but either didn’t get a reply or was given the run around. They found me work to do that supported others and I was used to, even though I was willing to learn while they placed me elsewhere. I didn’t have any tasks of my own or anything I solely owned, I was used in a support role for many people. Fast forward a year and a few months in and nothing has changed. When the lay offs started, I was one of the first people to go and I was told it was because I was only in a supportive role.
