Has anyone faced bullying/harassment at work? Wondering how your experience trying to formally address it might have been. Thank you

Express your concern to your immediate manager first, if that's not an option, try and reach out to someone above that, either one on one call or preferably on email (subject to confidentiality). This would surely result in a general and immediate agenda in next meetings or issue raises. If the problem still persists, the next step should be putting it on another email with the management and human resources on email. If the person tries to take it out on you professionally, they can't, because anything deliberately done would be held against that person. All the best.

Going to the manager is unfortunately not an option but I’m really scared of any form of retaliation:/

Every company has a retaliation policy. That will protect u from rating or firing.go through the policy.If possible start collecting evidence

Do I work at a toxic workplace?

We had a team touchbase where we as a group were asked our concerns regarding year end. I raised my concerns about staffing/expectations (the team is 75% new) since last year was demanding with us being up to 1 AM the day before deadline.

My director was on the call but not my VP. My VP reached out today and said he doesn’t appreciate hearing such comments on the grapevine but I was confused b/c all i did was answer the question I was asked.

I posted this somewhere else before I remembered that I am in this bowl :) so, I changed jobs 6-7 months ago and I am realizing it is not a good fit. Leadership seem to not want to hear the truth so people tell them what they want to hear and if you don’t middle management gets pissed at you. I am seriously thinking about looking somewhere else. My question is how do you answer the “why are you looking to leave” question without bad mouthing your current company?

I cleared tech and delivery mgr rounds.

I told her have 13 lpa pipeline already and wish 14 lpa.
She said "I have not seen the world. Only 20 percent ppl go beyond money, rest look for WLB, job security, learning."
Okay, so my thoughts are from where she got that stats - 20 percent really ?
I beleive HRs are also subset of that 20 percent, bdw I don't mind saying am a elite subset of the 20 percent looking for better salaries. What's wrong in asking ?
