I suggest you set a personal meeting with whomever has their answers and explain your concerns. Let them know you are willing to listen and help out but everyone needs to be on the same page. Have them set your objectives out on paper so there is no ambiguity later on. After you've set your objectives to paper,have them agree that all managers and executives that have some control over your work will be notified as to what is expected of you so they can't be pulling you in different directions on their personal whims. Then Have follow up meetings periodically (not annual performance reviews) to access your performance to your agreed upon objectives and to modify them if neccassary. |

watchyousleepnurse (OP) User ID: 41741272 United States 06/16/2013 08:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was brought into the office with HR, the GM, and the Director and told "this is not working". You called Jane and went around us. You should have come to us first. At which point I replied.. I agree , this is not working. I called Jane because I told her I would be there and you have done everything you can to keep me from doing my job. I can't do what you want me to do. I resigned in lieu of being fired! So now, I am unemployed!! Yeah me! I have a new mortgage, and no job. The company heavily recruited me away from their competitor. Once they hired me, they lied, manipulated me into scenarios where I would lose. They had me driving all over town with no gas or mileage allowance. They reduced my pay after working there only 5 weeks. They said I would not have a quota, yet after starting, the quota turned into "expectations". It was the most frustrating experience I have ever had. I am better than that and felt, if I had stayed, the outcome would have been worse. I am typically not paranoid, but the GM wanted me gone and she was determined to get rid of me one way or another. |

When they changed my role, no other paper was given with the new salary. They knew I was buying a home and would have to accept anything at that point. They probably wanted to fire me then |

Two different outcomes, of course. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 41493843 When you are called into the office and the HR person is there, its pretty obvious you are about to be fired! |

Sorry about that, I've seen this before and is usually due to not getting your expected objectives in writing after you were hired. |

None worked out because their expectations and what I was directed to do, were all different. The scheduler sent me in one direction, the supervisor wanted me in another, the GM had her expectations, and the regional director was shocked that I never did what she needed me to do! Should I even put this on my resume? The one good thing about all of this is this company has a reputation of firing and hiring. The HR person looks exhausted! If you work here and quit or are fired, other companies actually sympathize with you. I have several interviews lined up, and fingers crossed, life will go on. I've just never experienced anything like this in my whole career (27 years as an RN) |
