Things with my job, especially since my new boss/her boss (who was my interim boss after my first boss who was amazing was pushed out)found out I was pregnant, has gotten increasingly hostile and purposely aggressive (making short deadlines for things I have no experience doing, changing requirements last minute and then getting screamed at), being told that I “ask too many questions” etc. I’m taking notes of things and talked to a lawyer – but everything so far has been that they’re not outwardly discriminating… other than maybe them not giving a raise.. but they use their arbitrary internal deadlines as to why I wasn’t awarded one. Or they purposefully change requirements when I have other priorities when they know I am swamped. Or my boss will say one thing on a phone call and then totally back track and say something else in a follow up email. When I call her out on it – she just denies it.
I’m looking to get out asap but I need health insurance – I’m at the point at not caring about maternity leave.
I’m genuinely so upset because when I was first hired with my first boss – it was a dream. And since March it’s been slowly downhill – and since my new boss came into place in September it’s been horrific. My role was changed without notice and morale that was once so high is nothing. Our team of three is expected to do what a team of eight once did (everyone else was fired or quit).
I thought I could stick it out until I had my baby and then leave – but it’s literally at the point that these people have me in tears daily.
This is obviously not great. My husband asked if I can stick it out for the two short weeks just to try and document more information – but I am not sure if it’s even worth it other than getting two days paid without working. He said we could dip into our savings but it’s my work that we depend on health insurance- and it’s killing me.
I don’t know what to do.
I reached out to a few people that I trust if they knew of anything, anyone who is hiring. The timing is absolutely miserable.
I need a little encouragement.
