JBoggs, you're right if its an unstated compliment then why do i get abused by CTO All the time it isnt fair. Nobody else gets disrespected like I do.
And yes you are right about the whining I have been trying my best to do the best work yet i get such idiotic advice from him. I will just take...
Also the biggest issue is our operations guy. He just loves to blame you over every and anything knowing the situation of our company.
I will avoid start ups forever after this. Its very toxic
Ron247,
Appreciate your insight. The manager would tell me over and over again that no matter how hard you work your perception is based on how you show off yourself at work and who comes early.
The sad part is the ones who come early to this job actually screw off the most with office gossip...
If you have not already seen my threads progressively got worse in regarda to this job. The main manager disrespects me so much and in turn i lose respect from everybody at the company its becomes contagious. Im simply the punching bag a
Same time he wont fire me , he says youve been here for 2...
There are definitely no good allies. Especially not with me. Its alot of ego and people fighting to one up the other person.
Rather than helping each other as a team.
You only get blamed for stuff never praised.say if im getting chewed out other engineers are so thristy to feel superior the...
drawoh,
they lack extreme professionalism and the culture is ran by petty jealousy between the employees. The manager lectured me today that its not about the work you do even if its great and you work hard but its about how you can bullshit your appearance. People who show up before their...
Thanks, ill keep the ambition going. I felt i reallt got abused because i would just take it. The previous engineer who left this company said there isnt a worse culture hes seen than where i am now. It really ruins your perspective of engineering. I need to get out
I just struggled to get a job out of college so when they hired me i just wanted to do every and anything. Too ambitious in general but they took advantage of it for sure. Welp not sure where to go from here except apply for new jobs.
Theres one guy in particular who is the operations guy...
Appreciate everybody's feedback here. Its a very dysfucntional environment. They complain about me not ever having the BOM right for operations. How can one have the BOM or even make a new one every week when the product keeps changing?
Nobody is ever on the same page but are only ready to...
I work at a sales driven startup where everybody seems to hate each other or have constant disagreements. Its fairly a new idea and what i see is people who are just fighting to prove themselves to who knows what.
It gets to a point where i become the punching bag to it because im a junior...
Our other design engineering just put in his 2 weeks. He would constantly complain how us two were treated like shit the past 1.5 years of working here.
I will close this thread and just tell myself to tolerate as much as I can and continue to work hard till this August because that is when I...
Also I'm sick I'm my direct boss taking advantage of kindness and willingness to do anything that he just completely takes advantage of it and then belittles me afterwards its so annoying. I managed to stay here for 1.5 years and I just recently got a raise but it came directly from the CEO. I...
ST pipe,
To point out one fact if my direct boss is not at the company then it would be a great place to work. He just makes it difficult to get shit done in general
its still a stressful place. The other engineer is already leaving. he has much more talent and experience than me and he keeps tellin me this is not how it is at other places and is resigning in a few weeks. It is not just the boss that we have it is like a little gang of followers that brown...
ok a quick example of what I've been having to deal with alot recently. Hope this will put things into perspective and a better glimpse at my environment.
I come into work today and and the CTO starts to scream at me because I did not know why we dont use a certain component in our system...
STpipe,
How did the environment and experience of that negative environment help you where you are today?
Today my boss kept telling me to shut up and stop talking over something dumb and then tries to explain something very vague to me and then i ended up going off on him by yelling. I just...
Wayne440,
You are spot on this being my first job ive been getting treated so poorly even though I have the highest and most successful design. Its gotten much better but still i dont know. Ive learned alot and one thing is if someone gives you a shitty attitude you have to just tell them F off.
IRStuff,
I was given stock option in June, but i work in product development and its come to a point where things are getting so confusing. The higher ups dont know what they want and never stick to a certain design then get frustrated i cant meet a deadline to a moving target. Ive dealt with...
