I want to stay at the company I work for. The work is tolerable, the pay is good, the culture is good all things considered. But my current department doesn't reflect the culture and values of the company. My supervisor is a classic abuser. The lovebombing, denigrating, gaslighting, DARVO, all of it.
But, I was in town when I randomly met another employee/neighbor. I didn't go into the full situation but told her I was looking at other departments, but that HR said I can't transfer until April. She said they say that but there are exceptions if you really push for it.
I'm wondering what that might entail, what tactics might work. Other than talking to HR I'm starting to record conversations and preparing to lawyer up because I'm sick of this shit.
