Hi
I work for a very large multinational in Cork , been here over 8 years .
I moved dept internally three months ago , 2 other people joined the dept the week after me .
Before we arrived there were just two people in the dept and they both reported to the director .
As the group was expanding one of them was promoted to manager ( no previous managerial experience ) .
From the start I found the training hit and miss , I was hired along with one of the new hires for a specific project - it was to be spit between the two of us.
One of the 2 hires was working on an unrelated project and was trained in by one of the original two people in the dept ( not the one that was promoted )
Anyway I have asked my manger a few times about more detailed training and the last time I asked she got very aggressive with me, she told me “ she had enough of my lip “ & basically said I should know it by now and hinted my intelligence was below par .
This caused me a great deal of stress I stopped eating and sleeping and after a few days I eventually went to a doctor who diagnosed me with depression ( I do believe the depression was there before I started this job but it has been heightened considerable in the past fe months ) ,anyway the doctor put me on anti depressants and gave me a note to stay out of work for 10 days .
The note did not mention depression but stated I was out with a medical illness .
I came back to work this week as I am not really one to stay out and thought things would get better .
In the three days since i have been back my manger has said two words to me “ Better now”?
I have been excluded from 90% of the meetings related to the project I was working on & the other person is now doing the part that I was originally working on .
I know the first thing asked will be “ Did you go to HR “ the answer is no , HR here is very very poor and will always support the managers position.
Nor did I speak to my manager again - I know it sounds childish but I am scared and just do not feel I have the strength .
I am just looking for advice being excluded seems hard to prove .
I am at my wits end .
Thanks for reading the long note …..
