I like how you pointed out the manager might be lax about the teammate's behavior and their reasoning. Most people just say "if they're good manager, they'll respond well" and then waddle away, while missing all the nuances (like the manager can't afford to lose XYZ team member). Thanks for playing through the situation. Your empathy developed from workplace battle scars really show ❤
I know a billionaire who let go of a good employee, because he complained about being bullied by a brilliant jerk. Fast forward a year, and the brilliant jerk insulted the billionaire in front of multiple teams, using swear words. That's when he finally realised his mistake, and fired the jerk. Our trust in him had hit zero though.
such a coincidence, it just happen to me last night but the different is i need to review my manager code who always complain about shi**y code but insist to do the same.
Life's too short to work in a toxic workplace. I'm a senior dev and everyone loves my reviews and I'm the go-to guy for help. I try to be who I wish I could have worked with in my early days. It's important.
I get really happy when my manager/ leads do a harsh review, gets to learn a lot even if it is a small PR. Get to know a very different perspective/ approach of the same solution.
