Hey fam, don’t want to disclose too much but I’m thinking of talking to my CC and then going to HR over a comment/promotional threat a lead made to me. I volunteer to do a lot but felt that instead of

Be careful. HR is there to protect the company, not you. I have never seen anyone benefit from complaining to HR.

Thank you for all the great insight fam. I’m gonna go to HR on Thursday to have it on record but I won’t disclose the name. I’m pretty close with HR rep so it’ll be a casual convo. Again, appreciate you guys!

Ive used hr, even reached out to one of the north America leads. They can't fix anything if they aren't told. It had no negative affect on me

It’s a shame how leaders treat people like commodities. My personal opinion is that no one can disrespect or treat you anyhow without your permission. I don’t think this is worthy of going to HR just yet. While I understand that we are many tines infringed, reporting to HR sometimes come across as being whiners. Keep a journal to keep events fresh and accurate and see how things progress.

Also don’t win the fight only to lose the war. When I first joined my old company,my colleagues used to make open gun of me. I was livid but didn’t show it. However my strategy was to learn as much as I could despite the treatment. After a few months, I was equally competent and I had a great work ethic so the others were later let go when the company went through a rough patch

(Contd.) putting me on chargeable work, they started to take advantage of the menial work I volunteered for (easy stuff). So last week I told them going forward I would like not to do that (and I finished the task). The lead then said "Am I sure I wanted to tell him no so close to promotion time". Then today someone told me he sent out am email (but didn't pull me over to talk...). I wasn't pressed but after receiving a few second opinion, I'm thinking maybe I should.

Thanks B1. I thought as much

I agree that HR is there to protect the company (from Personal experience) but it’s still necessary. Reason being you want to document it for retaliation, discrimination,etc (whatever it may be) because in the event you have to sue the company or make a point it is already documented and it won’t look like you’re filing the claim BECAUSE you didn’t get promoted. Just to share my story, filed a claim for retaliation against the partner and director on my team, had a convo with the third Party and internal HR director (let’s just say we were not feeling each other after our convo). Received a low performance memo. Turn out almost 50 black people received a low performance memo and were let go. Since I filed to claim, my company “couldn’t” let me go because that would be a huge law suite for retaliation.

The company should create an environment where they’re dangling your promotion in front of your face to do work that someone else could do

All you need to do. Considering we have the same company it should work out well.

Hi All,

I have an offer of 6.5 LPA fixed with Accenture (Level 11). Total CTC in Accenture is 7.8 LPA which includes variable pay. I have an offer of 8 LPA fixed with another company. I have accepted the offer of Accenture so now if I ask Accenture to increase my fixed amount to 7 LPA from 6.5 LPA, will my request get fulfilled and is this fair to ask? My joining date is 20-21 days from today. Please suggest
