YoungHeart1980!

I hope everyone is doing okay.

The “corner” as I call the higher ups all sit in one section which is the corner of the floor, away from all the chaos with their doors shut is what I call them. The click that consists of 4-6 that really don’t have the experience to hold their role, maybe 🤔 my boss, but is not experienced in research. 🔬 They failed at the whole evaluation process and rushed when it came to me.

This time my boss brought back up to try and convince me to stay on board, the Sr. Manager. He had no other choice. I give her credit for at least listening to my concerns, but the fact is the all sat here in silence 🤐 and let me burn 🔥 with the chaos and consequences of their decisions I have been bailing them out one after another. The nail on the coffin was the conversation with the administrator (blog 10/30/25). I was threatened, don’t have tenure, no goals, and the next year’s goals were discussed and nothing about my actual performance during this year. None of them thought to ask how I was doing or providing feedback. I worked so hard with no disruption to the program or finance work and they had nothing to say. My position is not only of a senior analyst any longer.

I was being told this whole time I was only to oversee one project with a $35M dollar budget and 23 projects. It is a lot with no complaint. How can my boss tell me now that I should get more finance work in addition to what I’m already doing? I asked them what would they remove on my to-do list that they don’t even have so I can do these other duties? The manager acknowledged that I have been able to do things that haven’t been done before. Well, okay, but that’s because I came with experience. So which one will it be senior analyst or project management? I listed a whole list of about 15 tasks that I was completing without them even knowing I had take over. Tracking sheets, program reporting, cross-training, contract management, and I’m reporting and the public face to the external constituents.

The “corner” is solely transactional , out of sight – out of mind people, very tunnel vision. I can’t expect a position and raise since we have a freeze, the job market is very competitive. All they are doing is moving my office space on-site at my request. I don’t want to sit near them and add additional documentation to my performance evaluation from the medical doctors of my work.

They are all scrambling nervous 😬, they all want to talk to me now. I don’t feel motivated to come to work any longer, my work is undervalued, nothing resolved, and it doesn’t matter anymore. All the Best!
