@A2 - Based on what my analyst told me, I would’ve been in tears too.
@A1 - I’m thinking something along those lines. If the goal was to coach then that goal was not achieved. I’m thinking the lead needs some coaching on how to coach.

OP You need to bring this up to your manager and that prick’s manager. If you have great rapport with your analyst and that prick’s got a team of his/her own, I don’t see why he/she has to step on your toes. All this effort to mess with someone else’s business makes me question how great of a lead he/she should be. Make sure he/she gets a good slap on the wrist for that.

Just call him out, ask him what he said. Analyst might be too sensitive if coaching brings them to tears

Sounds like the lead needs coaching

OP That lead sounds like a terrible one, but don’t confront him/her. His team must be so happy 🙃

Agreed what did the lead say

Having your team’s back is literally your job, and the value of your team knowing that you do is hard to overstate. Tell the other team lead if they make your team cry you make them cry.

I thought that too of some of the middle eastern and Caribbean island managers I worked with on a job once, but they turned out to be the most supportive and inquisitive. But I feel ya, sometimes you can sense if they'll be hostile toward you. But I don't give af at this point. In the end, they're still professionals working for Big 4 and probably won't dare say anything to you about it, even if it does bother them. Way I see it, ignorant people like that don't go very far working in our industry.

PEOPLE DO MAKE MISTAKES!! but My manager reacts very rudely everytime with me, And all seniors who are with him around 10+ years will assign tickets to me and they monitor me continuously.
