What do I do at Amazon if a peer has undermined me and convinced leadership (they blindly accepted the information my peer provided without engaging me) that he should take over my team? This resource openly admitted to doing this.

    One stop calling then a resource. Understand the situation, if it cannot be salvaged, switch teams.

  • Iโ€™m going through exactly the same thing. I was told HR wonโ€™t help in these kind of matters. Not sure if itโ€™s different at Amazon vs. Microsoft

    There are some battles you regret not fighting in future. If you think it is this, raise an objection to your senior leadership politely. They will obviously give some shit reason. Network within women in Amazon and find a mentor. Share your story. Female leaders are undermined all the time. Going to HR is seen as playing the woman card. So, build a network of female leaders within the company. Pm me if you want to discuss more. I worked in Amazon for 6 months and jumped to a more supportive org

      OP
      Today he openly said in a leadership meeting... I know what I did was a pussie move, but I just don't want to work with you anymore. Then proceed to make comments about my leadership, especially about how my directs can't do their jobs. But hmmm that's not what my metrics or retrospectives say. I have a team project delivery of 15-18 projects and all retros speak wonders to how well the teams are working together.
