Hi all
I have been in my current role as a PA to the MD for a year on the 17th. It is a small family run company with the wife, husband and daughter working there, We are constantly walking on eggshells and they argue constantly between them, she is a bully. We do not have a pension (even though it's in our contracts) and I have had one 1:1 since being there. The company is in financial difficulties and it is just not a very nice place to work. I am not the only one that feels like this.
I was on holiday last week and was called into her office today where she basically tore into me about my performance and that there were a, 'whole list of things I have done wrong, but I won't go into them now', a couple of things I admitted I hadn't been on top of. I have been there a year on the 17th August and I think it's within a year employers can let you go without a reason? I have been looking for other jobs as two months ago she f'd and blinded in my face because I hadn't put a meeting in the calendar between her and a colleague. She hasn't raised any of her grievances before and has asked me to give a decision as to whether I want to stay or not within the next couple of days. I've had a hunch they want to get rid of me for a few weeks, she hasn't been handing as much over to me and they are in financial trouble so maybe cannot afford me.
I just don't know what to do. I am a single mother of two and have to pay the mortgage and bills so can't just leave... I am tempted to stay until hopefully I get something else, but then I am worried about a reference from her.....
