I had a bad manager at Amazon. He was highly unethical and was gaslighting me. He was also sexually harassing me. He put me on a PIP to further gaslight me saying “Nobody likes you and you need to go and ask them why and what you have done wrong.” When I did, they said I was crazy, that they did like me, and they gave me a good review. But I never saw the review, he deleted it from the portal. I put in five pages of an ethics complaint and none of it was acted upon with that outside agency. He even did Heil Hitler in the office twice and thought it was funny. I asked to be transferred and he refused. He liked me too much. I went on a four month leave due to stress. I came back and two people were temps to fill in for me. He put me on the PIP after one week. I said “No way!” I told HR that I put in a five page ethics complaint and either move me, or fire him, or give me $30,000. They gave me the money in 20 minutes. Now I’m blacklisted and can’t work there again! And it’s the states largest employer now. And I’m out of work. Ugh. Really makes me upset because he was the bad guy, not me. Grrrrrr.

      I know..$100K. They gave me that check so fast I was shocked. The HR lady turned white as a ghost when I said “Ask legal about my ethics complaint, or did you not know about that?” And her eyes popped out of her head. She said “I’ll be right back.” Then she came back 10 minutes later with someone from legal and was like “Ummmm soooo we are willing to give you whaat you want and a little bit more plus 3 months of insurance and a year of fully vested RSU’s etc.” Tgey knew they were in trouble. He stole from the company. He ordered $2000 of Daniels Broilers gift cards to give out as “gifts” to hard-working employees. Had me send them to his condo, not to the office. Problem is, ahhhh, he never gave them out. Then there was the secret trip to Singapore to “interview” someone, but there wasn’t a resume in the portal. And I was told to keep the trip confidential and not tell any of the Directors and two of them were at the SIN airport at the same time, on his team. I had to put him at a hotel across town from them. A four day trip, in total secrecy, paid for by Amazon, and no business purpose. Yup. That was reported. Nothing happened. Nada. The list goes on and on. He got off the hook and I got punished. Go figure.

    That is insane. Are you a developer? I’m surprised Amazon wants to keep the manager.
