If you find yourself at a company that sucks, for whatever reason, kick their asses to the curb and find a new one.
And don't forget to call them out for it, publicly. I know that's easy to say, and in reality it's going to be hard to deal with the inevitable onslaught of abuse you're going to take for it. But companies have to make an effort to ensure that toxic environments are eliminated.
- leephillips 12y ago"And don't forget to call them out for it, publicly." Many homeowner's policies allow you to pay a bit extra to add defense against defamation lawsuits to your liability coverage. You should at least put this in place, unless you have $30,000 - $100,000 in disposable savings to defend against a defamation suit. This is what you need to plan for if you intend to make public statements that damage a business' reputation - and that's if you know you're right and have thorough documentation of every claim you make. If you lack any of that documentation, it's going to cost you a lot more.
- chc 12y agoI don't understand what you just said here. Because homeowner's insurance policies allow riders for defense against defamation lawsuits, you shouldn't talk about your experience at a company? Why?
- res0nat0r 12y agoYou can be sued for making defamatory statements against your prior employer, so you better make sure you can handle the court costs if it comes to that.
- AnimalMuppet 12y agoIt's not just the court costs. They will also try to paint you as less than competent and trying to play the gender card. To try to salvage their own reputation, they'll publicly trash yours. Make sure it's worth it to you before you go down this road. Note well: I am not justifying what such a company will do. I am merely saying that they almost certainly will do this.
