Finally had my performance review with my boss. (It’s about a month late and I’m the last one on the team to get it.)

Objectives: 💯 Goals: 💯 Feedback: FenrirIII is great. Keep up the good work! No negative feedback. Bonus: 100% Raise: 0%

I find out that there was an incident that cost me my raise (i.e. my director denied it).

Earlier in the year, my Sales team fucked up and screwed up a deployment, which has nothing to do with me. I went out of my way to fix their fuck up because they punted it over to me. It took 2 weeks and a lot of favors to get it fixed and running.

That same Sales team blamed the whole thing on me (again, not involved until they screwed up) and told the customer (who had never met me) to tell my VP and Director that I suck when they met them in person at an event. Unbelievable. Now, I’m expected to go work with these sabotaging assholes and keep breaking my back to keep them from torpedoing me again.

Fuck that. It’s quiet quitting time and job hunting elsewhere. There will be other asshole Sales people out there, but maybe I can get a pay bump out of it.

    After my rage has subsided, I will do this. I spent 3 months under a microscope because of this incident and proved that it wasn’t as big a deal as they (management) were told and that it was not my fault. But, apparently, it’s a great excuse to justify denying me a raise. I will contest the decision if possible.

      Yeah. Angry emails aren’t great. But good to get on record before too long.
      Write it all out now, and have a friend do a tone edit.
      Or post it here and the Internet can do it for you. And hope your employer doesn’t do a search on text.

      Keep looking for a job if you go this route. Most companies are far more willing to force out an annoying employee than fix a broken process.
