HR meeting in the morning

Sorry to post here but desperate!

I have resigned but made it clear that I feel pushed out. I’ve worked at the company for 20 months and my notice will make it 23 months (so not meeting two years).

There are a multitude of issues which are hard to prove but the main evidential ones are that:

  • we have annual mini promotions, this is based on your performance. We work on projects. For the last 6-8 months I have been utilised 0-10%, people at the same grade have had 70-200% utilisation. I have been asking for work constantly. Without the work I’m unable to show I deserve the promotion (which I know I do). I wasn’t promoted this year as a result.
  • one senior employee, who left a few weeks after telling me, said that I would be a scapegoat for promotions as I didn’t join as a graduate. He then marked me down out of nowhere (not allowed) then agreed he shouldn’t have but it’s too late now (it wasn’t). He was angry with the company and the system it turns out and I was his easy punching bag.
  • during the pandemic I reached out to my work coach multiple times. First was that I had to care for CEV parents and felt very emotionally drained. The second was to explain that I’d been diagnosed with a MH issue that I consider a disability. This coupled with not getting any work has created panic as I’m so not used to working, I live in fear of work. When I have had bits to do I’ve been fine though, it’s just all due to a lack of support and fear of power hungry bosses.

Tomorrow I guess I’m meant to explain my resignation letter. Is there any point going into detail? This is the FIRST time someone has listened to my cries for help. I’ve spoken to several senior people and only upon resignation did they say they could find me work.
Or will it just be not worth my time going into much detail, and should I just nod and arrange my exit interview?

I absolutely did not want to leave. I wanted to stay at least 2 years for CV’s sake.

@Abracadabra14 I’m so sorry I committed the classic fail of not reading all your posts. I think you should speak to a lawyer. It sounds like discrimination in which case your length of service does not matter: PM me if you want a contact. Apologise again for not reading all your posts. Flowers

@Thatwentbadly

Sounds like an exit interview to me. They ask the good and bad points of working for the company and then usually don’t do anything different.
^this. I refuse to participate in exit interviews; they pointless.

"CEV parents"
What did you want your employer to do ?
You could have requested paid or unpaid leave ?
Lots of people have had to take on extra caring responsibilities during the pandemic for children, family, friends & neighbours
