IBM ordered to pay £22k to whistleblower and told by judges: Teach your managers what discrimination means

Re: Harassment and mobbing on the job

Absolutely this.

Re: targeted by four managers within IBM

Nope... Shit gets pushed down hill in IBM.

Nobody questions the morality or the logic of decision from on high. They just pass it on.

The spreadsheet says we have to do X, so we do X until we break something and the spreadsheet now says we do Y. So we do Y. Logic gets ignored, people get thrown under the bus.

In this case, I can completely believe it. A PIP is supposed to shame you into leaving. Always had been used that way.

Don't get me wrong, there are people who try to deflect that down hill flow... But very few of them care enough to put themselves on the line.
