What is the name of your state? MA
Sixteen months ago a new manager for my group was hired. I was an employee of good standing before she was hired. I went for the position even though I knew I didn't have enough experience. Her manager (the VP) told her I went for it. Immediately, she began to unravel my ties to members in the company saying that the people that used to deal with ME now have to deal with HER. (Emphasized here because of the voice inflection she used when telling me this.) I have been give such little gifts as Prickly Pear tea from a trip, and this past xmas, OBEY had cream and nail kit. Others received chocolates or little cute token gifts. She is jealous of the experience I have and has told me how frustrated she is that she doesn't know what I know. Because I was able to run the dept. without mgr. in the midst of massive change in the company before she was hired, and because others trust my judgement on how I do my job, she has taken to have others both within and outside of my dept., who want in with a manger, make my job infinitely more difficult. People she promoted and hired have taken to harrassing behavior and are, at her behest trying to drive me over the edge. Comments that were made over the phone by a new coworker were repeated verbatim in my review. She was talking about my review to a coworker?? I am unable to sleep and it is affecting my health. I enjoy my job most of the time, but the atmosphere there because of her and the others is unbearable. I went to HR after my first negative review, where she only knew me for 2 months. Just had my second review where the places I should've received highest marks, because of a personal issue with her, I received the lowest. I was fine that she got the job, I wasn't ready for it. I merely wanted to show that I wanted advancement. Now I'm being forced out and defamed in the process. She loses jobs that others send in to be done by the group and I get blamed for it, she has lied and I can prove it. Is there anything here that can be seen as an illegal practice?
