I read the transcript and wow this brings back bad memories of a former boss. edited by me for clarity: 17 June: Zeng proposes to Orsini that Zeng make a new team. Orsini says no. 2 July: Zeng chats Orsini, "[...] just to confirm I will start [at new team] on August 1st". Orsini tells Zeng there is no job requisition [at new team] 7 July: Zeng's supervisor tells team that Machine Zone wants to limit # of employees for the year. Zeng messages Orsini and asks if that will affect his new position. Orsini says they will not be creating a new position. next day: Zeng goes to HR and says he thought there was an agreement with Orsini for a new position. even after it is finally made clear to Zeng that there is no new position / new team for him, he then wanted his options to vest early! I worked with a manager like this. He just willfully ignored you telling him answers he didn't want to hear or didn't like. Until I finally quit, it was the worst 7 months of my career. Zeng seems to be the same.
