Would you consider this to be a hostile work environment?

After years of outstanding metrics along with the going above and beyond as much as possible, it seemed my time had finally come late September. I was assigned to a special project, which was a dream. (The pay still sucked though). The day before Thanksgiving, we were pulled into a meeting and were informed the team was disbanded, we were going back to our previous roles and could potentially end up working overnight shifts. No working with us about it, just “it's business”. I worked hard for the hours I had. Number 11 in shift bid due to my metrics. One of my coworkers sent a letter of grievance to my boss's boss's boss and I asked to be sent a copy but ended up being cc:d along with 4 others.

After years of outstanding metrics along with the going above and beyond as much as possible, it seemed my time had finally come late September. I was assigned to a special project, which was a dream. (The pay still sucked though).

The day before Thanksgiving, we were pulled into a meeting and were informed the team was disbanded, we were going back to our previous roles and could potentially end up working overnight shifts. No working with us about it, just “it's business”. I worked hard for the hours I had. Number 11 in shift bid due to my metrics.

One of my coworkers sent a letter of grievance to my boss's boss's boss and I asked to be sent a copy but ended up being cc:d along with 4 others. The task ended up being delegated to the boss who wasn't working with us which ended up in single interrogations and threats.

They threw us into a training refresher class with brand new hires. The trainers didn't understand why we were there. I mentioned this during the interrogation and he asked his assistant to check if that was true. After that, we were treated even more horribly.

Once again, we were presented another special project, because the 2nd tier manager felt badly for what we went through. We have horrible hours for my kids and the other half of the team (ones who weren't disbanded after all) are able to come in earlier and do not have to answer phone calls. So they are posting in our team chat, basically rubbing it in our faces how easy they have it.

We were deceived into accepting this project under false promises and ended up doing a different role.

There's so much more..I haven't even gotten into the mind games my immediate manager plays on us. I just have 12 more hours until i can cash in that pto. Wish me luck please.
