I think that's common through all of Europe, but a petty manager that's out for blood can call you next manager and 'tell' him how bad of hire you are and that getting rid of you if for the best.
if the new manager believes him you can be let go in your probation period, and end up with no job.
I heard of this done once or twice through friends.
- the_gipsy 5y agoBullshit. If some guy calls me claiming that my new hire is bad, that automatically rings all kinds of alarm bells. Only someone that is some kind of psycho would try such petty revenge.
- obedm 5y agoHah same thought here! I'd assume the person calling is bat crazy. I'd still be on my toes with the new hire just to be sure, but I wouldn't fire them. Everyone has a story. And the people seeking revenge aren't necessarily in the right.
- INTPenis 5y agoI think more normal is for the new employer to contact your old manager and ask for an opinion. Like a reference.
