One of our new seniors was bullied out of the team in his first week here (to a promotion in another department, bless him). And my boss reassured me that he would find a replacement ASAP, but hasn’t done so since. Meanwhile it’s been up to me to pick up the additional workload. When I followed up with my boss a few months later he said that there were no plans to hire anyone, but to send me candidates if I knew some. So I did, I found excellent candidates basically begging to work here, and shared them with my boss and the unit VP, who ghosted me, and it’s never been spoken about since. I’m sure they’re content to save the extra cash and reallocate it to their year end bonuses. Is this even worth bringing up to him again?
