I’ve been having some issues in my job and feel like none of them are taken seriously there’s also some underlining misogyny that I don’t think is taken seriously. I work at a university for context.
These were some of the below points that I’d like to raise but not sure if they’d be taken seriously. I’ve been in my role for 3 years, never any performance issues or concerns been made aware.
- I was shouted at by a senior colleague who believed that I’d done something wrong (I hadn’t). I spoke to my then manager who spoke to senior colleague and the manager received an apology but I never did and this was seen as sufficient
- I was told a year ago that I must move teams as another team was short staffed. I was never given the choice and was told on the Monday I’d be on a new team with a completely new title. Told to lump it if I didn’t like it basically
- was never given an induction plan or any sort of support into “new role”
- I’ve had 6 managers in the last two years. It’s so frustrating as I start a project, and then a new manager comes and says scratch that and I’m continually starting but not finishing projects due to management changes
- One of my ex managers (most recent) was making misogynistic comments and downright rude to staff- he was six months in probation. He was reported to the director, who then told him if he left quietly he would be given 8 weeks paid garden leave and a good reference. Most people on probation only get 1 weeks notice and even higher level staff only get 4 weeks and the comments were never noted through HR. He’s currently boasting about this and it’s true as he’s still listed as our manager despite not working
i just feel so defeated and wondered if HR would even care? I don’t want to make things worse for myself either.
