I HATE when I am asked to have a project/deliverables due by x time and when I deliver at x time or a little before and I inform x person who asked for it by no later than x time doesn’t review it. 😡

Congrats! It’s called life and living up to expectations and your responsibilities! It doesn’t matter if it’s reviewed right away or not. You agreed to a certain deadline and (hopefully) you met it. Feel good about coming through on the delivery on time. You did your part. Your expectations on when it should be reviewed aren’t appropriate and aren’t part of the original contract/agreement. You’ll be happier if you concentrate on what you do and not others.

My remit quadrupled+ in a recent re-org with no increase in pay/promotion, my new director is new to the company and was zero help, and I was passed over for recent promotion during the comp cycle. The new director essentially began shutting me down any time I ask for clarity in my career progression. Now they have taken credit for the project I’ve been building over the past year+ without giving me props whatsoever to higher ups. What is the best plan of action here?

Hi everyone, wanted to come back and talk about the work environment at the Washington Redskins/Football Club -- the Washington Post story was pretty jaw dropping. One troubling angle was the use of NDAs to stifle victims. NDAs have for too long enabled bad behavior to continue, and it's time companies pledged to stop using NDAs in settlements with victims -- the coverup is worse than the bad acts. I think Warren torpedoed Bloomberg's campaign due to his use of NDAs. Thoughts?
