I learned a management lesson: if you treat people like naughty children, even the most skilled employee becomes useless.
Minpunten
I joined in a junior role, with the expectation that I would be given at least my managers support in learning the role and developing my skills. For about a month the pretence was kept up... In reality, senior management did not invest at all in staff and my line manager was a vicious bully who ruled his department like a tin pot dictator. I should have left after a year, but by then my confidence was so low I could not imagine ever being offered another job. The majority of my co-workers were incredibly depressed and staff were frequently off sick with flimsy excuses because they just could not face another day of bullying, threats of being fired, micromanagement to the 15 minutes, humiliation and personal insults. The tipping point came when someone else complained about how my manager treated me and the company made zero effort to intervene beyond telling him the details of the complaint, which led to further bullying. 6 months into a new job and I still have a completely irrational fear of being fired for no reason and have actual nightmares about being back there. The only word for the company culture is TOXIC.
