Bad Yearly Review

Last year’s review said that I “exceeded expectations” and I got promoted to a senior level because I started training all new employees to my group. This year I got “need improvement” because I have “no interpersonal skills, no leadership skills, and am unprofessional “. I never received a single email in the last 12 months regarding my newly lacking skills. In fact, I’ve voiced frustration and concern to my boss that I’m having trouble training the 2 newest people. In 12 months I went from being lauded as a great mentor to being told I’m unprofessional. I’m so fucking mad. And crying. I was never given training on how to train people. Ever.

In 12 months I went from being lauded as a great mentor to being told I’m unprofessional. I’m so fucking mad. And crying. I was never given training on how to train people. Ever. I’ve asked for leadership training tools and was never even responded to.

I’ve spent the last two years training 8 new people, several who just don’t seem to get it . I feel like I’m being blamed for the fact that those people aren’t cut out for the job.

I meet with my boss and her boss tomorrow to go over the review (as I only have the report right now). I’m going to resign the trainer duties and go back to my regular duties since I still “exceeds expectations” there.

Fuck them. If I’m such a bad trainer, why am I still in charge of it and why do they want me to continue??

Edit: A few months ago I told my boss that if we weren’t allowed to do hybrid schedules when we could return to the office that I was going to look for employment elsewhere. I’m feeling like maybe they didn’t like that too much…….
