Good company poor management and co-workers
Pros
They used to have a great 44,000 sq ft office but after Covid they closed that down and made everyone full time remote. Most co-workers were nice and helpful. Others made it a nightmare.
Cons
For 4 years I never received a single poor performance review or complaint. Then a new employee joins my team and starts complaining about my job duties randomly without my knowledge. I messaged him politely but made myself clear in asking that he come to me first if he has an issue. This ended up in an HR write up with 0 consequences for the guy responsible. Then my manager gave me an ultimatum of basically stay with this team where one guy dislikes me or go to her team with her direct over sight. I chose her team. She immediately puts me Into a role that I have done basically level work at that passed 4 years immediately. After getting mad that my tickets were taking long she finally admitted she “threw me in the deep end”. Even though my tickets only took long because the offshore team members had very little idea of what they were talking about half the time and asked me to make corrections for something that wasn’t broken. Just to have another employee who thought he was on a power trip tell me to do it a different way. I couldn’t win. I was dealing with some personal things and woke up late a few times but also there was a known iphone glitch where the alarm wouldn’t go off. She didn’t care. They give me a PIP. I didn’t realize at the time I should’ve started looking for a new job because they essentially made up there mind about getting rid of me months in advance. I even got messages on LinkedIn by people applying for my job asking me to be their reference. Sure enough I was 6 minutes late to one meeting and 10 to another due to zoom on my computer being slow. This was enough to let me go with cause because that PIP covered their selves from lawsuits. My performance had nothing to do with it. Not only did they act like everything was normal for weeks they let me go 5 days after my 5th year anniversary.
