What about the frustration of believing a current employer is badmouthing you? Genuinely curious

Well it.would be awful indeed. Is this happening to you now? I would imagine it would be easier to know what's being said about you if it's a current employer. You could have a sit down with your manager and ask them how you can improve which could make things better I hope.

Yes

Where you able to find out who did it and what they were saying about you? Sorry that happened to you.

I have had several employers where, even if you leave on good terms, management/HR take it as an insult that no one would ever leave that place and trash past workers. I used a co-worker as a reference instead of management.
