My manager once praised me in public but tore me down in private. Have you dealt with two faced treatment?

I am not sure the gravity of your statement “tore me down”. The expectation from managers is to market your strengths in public but give you constructive feedback in private or translate business or client feedback into constructive feedback so that you can improve.

Constructive feedback is helpful. However, how they approached it wasn’t.

Yes I’ve experienced this. Being nice to my face but actually saying something different about me to a colleague of mine - it’s awful behaviour!

It is, isn’t it?
