How do you deliver feedback, if it all, around language? A staff I work with is very hard to understand with her accent. Her written English is also sub-par. Feels sort of discriminatory to call out?

I wouldn't touch that one without HR guidance.

You can absolutely call it out. Call it communication is challenging, not clear, not client ready, can support the team in the back but not be client facing, lacks presence, etc. You want a job in the US, it’s your job to make sure that you can communicate.

I've done this before. I've let the Partner know I was doing so and here are the examples. I'm sure other people have the same issue. It's only an HR issue if you make it personal and attack them. Let them know you're there to support them, but you and the client feel there are some challenges.
Again, do not make it personal - does not matter their age, background, schooling, ethnicity, etc. I would treat it the same way as providing positive/negative feedback.

That's not your place.

Thanks all for the replies. Consensus seems to be clear, which is exactly why I asked. Anyone have guidance on handling this or mitigating? I manage three projects I don’t have time re-do 10 page documents to correct grammar and logic. Suppose I can try to assign tasks differently.

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?

Hello! This is a long story, so I’ll try to keep it brief. I work for a very small supplement company - it’s myself (marketing/acct mgmt) my coworker (sales), and the owner. My coworker is struggling to complete his tasks/meet his goals, and the owner is coming to me about angry clients. I’m afraid my coworkers inability to complete his duties is somehow being reflected onto me? What’s the most tactful way to have a conversation, either with him or the owner? Can provide further detail if needed

She seems like a nice person but i have 0 positive work feedback tbh
