Get another job.

@jackwinters5942 3 года назад

I have. She even manages how I respond to emails. She contradicts her instructions on day to day basis in such a way that she made it appear I have not done what she asked me to do knowing that it was the instruction she made a day ago. She supersedes a lot of her instructions. It's so stressful. One time I had enough, I answered her email point by point to her allegations. My last paragraph was telling her that I value my job and I don't want to get fired because I have a family to take care of. Until now she hasn't responded, and that alone is stressful not knowing what will happen by next week.

I work with a huge company my manager micromanaging has gotten to the point that she demands to know what I am doing on a constant level. I have worked for a lot of companies in my life, huge and small alike, and I have never been questioned about my work ethics. It has gotten to the point where I have been on short term disability because she caused me so much stress I passed out.

I endured this for almost 10 years and today i gave my resignation and im full of hapiness for finally being able to do it.

Careful with that a lot of micro-managers are that way because it is part of an underlying personality disorder. They will leave having interpreted things in a re-affirming way in most cases. It's s a self-protective thing that is part of the PD.

@danielcaudillmedia 2 года назад

I'm working for yet another micromanaging boss. I think these people are insecure, and fearful that a talented employee might steal the spotlight. My current boss's favorite tactic seems to be withholding information that is needed to do a particular job, but then pick it apart after completion. His identification of someone's mistake gives him the feeling of superiority. I have over 30 years' experience in the too-and-die trade, as well as a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I can only guess that I pose some kind of threat to their role as manager. Companies claim that they are desperately in need of skilled people, but today's managers don't know how to employ them. No wonder there are so many people who have simply had enough, and leave the workforce as part of the Great Resignation.

@j.j.9538 Год назад

You're 100% correct. Bosses micromanage you because they see you as a threat or they're envious. Always! There's nothing you can do about it. Now your boss is focusing a lot of attention and effort to try and discredit you, so they can feel less jealous and to try to show to other people that that you're not that great. He wants you gone because your presence drains him. An envious person see you as an enemy and they are drained by your presence. They will do everything in their power to take you out.

@Miss.ducharme Год назад

This looks so familiar. I also feel like information Is kept on purpose. I was not sure at first I thought I did something wrong. But then realized I would always get asked to do new task, documents on my days alone. I would complete them, however get criticized about every single things I did wrong like. Not name the documents right name… feels like walking on eggshells.

@nightowl3582 3 года назад

Yep. My first boss out of college turned out to be a micro manager and she utterly killed morale. The whole team would go outside during lunch breaks just to vent about her. I put up with her overbearing crap for a year before I finally had had enough and left. Haven't dealt with anything like that since, thankfully. Nothing like working for someone who admonishes you for taking initiative and getting things done as opposed to consulting with her first. If you can afford to, get out. Don't put up with being micro managed.

@carlosc8329 Год назад

Same. My first micromanager destroyed my moral. It was until the lockdown that I had the time to regain my inner peace. After that, I came back to the workforce with a second micromanager (lucky me). This time I stood my ground refusing ro reloose my peace and critical thinking against her. As a result, my micromanager said I was making the environment toxic by showing disrespect (IE not following her). After 2 years of both of us having a stalemate, I quit to greener pastures.

@Meowy_Mix Год назад

Best solution is to quit, they'll never change. I'm dealing with one right now and it's insufferable. She's constantly watching you and telling you what to as you're about to do it anyway, repeats herself on simple tasks, asks for updates when you barely started, wastes time correcting things her way when the work is already done, texts me before work even starts and lays out a detailed schedule down to the time. The best part is she comes in hours before her shift off the clock on her days off to tell us what to do and work, which means texting all that shit doesn't even mean anything if she's going to be here anyway. Apparently she doesn't have a life outside of work? It's AWFUL! The best part is I've worked there longer than she has and she knows less than me, yet shes still breathing down my neck. They want to know everything and control everything, it's stressful and not worth it.

@susanbrown6115 Год назад

I think the best solution is to (try) to find the humor in it and have empathy (whilst you're looking for something else) She can't help herself for whatever reason. Never believe that you need the micromanaging. If you did, you wouldn't be looking for something else!!

The best thing to do is update your resume and leave for the next great opportunity. Micromanagers believe they are right on everything and tend to be insecure about themselves. They most likely see you as a threat...like they know you could do their job. So they gaslight you and try to make you feel you aren't that great an employee.

Best way to deal with a boss who is a micromanager? Just wait until no more noise is coming out of their pie hole, then look at them and say "Yeah, OK." in a pleasant voice. When they walk away thinking that they've imposed their will, control, and dominion over you, just go back to doing what you were doing, since you probably know what you're doing better than they do.

If the only reason your boss can tell you why they want you to do something a certain way is that that's how they did it when in your position it's a pretty good clue that they're micromanaging you. My boss used to constantly try and get me to change how I was doing things and the only justification he could give was that was how he used to do it. Didn't matter that my job was getting done, that I explained that I'm doing it the way that works for me, that I've tried his way and I found it slower/more difficult/etc to do it that way, etc, etc, etc.

Sometimes just because it works for you doesnt mean you cant change. Sometimes other ways work better and in a workplace, efficiency is always needed.

@janewildly Год назад

I agree. The results should matter more than the technique/processed used. As long as the employee is not crossing any ethical boundaries and they’re meeting goals and productivity requirements are met in a timely manner, then managers should let you do your own thing. It’s so frustrating and depressing when you can’t work with some autonomy. It’s like being treated like a child or you’re dumb and incompetent

@susanbrown6115 Год назад

I have a manager who micromanages everyone on her team. It does make you feel better (schadenfreude) to know you're not the only one, but only a little bit. Not sustainable, and not something worker bees will put up long-term. It's hard to understand how Sr. Management doesn't put two and two together, but the micromanaging is in essence why our company only has one product in development.

@seanlotz9581 3 года назад

There's an elephant in the room (at least within much of modern corporate culture), concerning many micromanagers: Many of these individuals (either consciously or unconsciously) are engaging in this behavior because when they're not picking apart the details of what those under them are doing, it becomes shockingly apparent that they don't actually bring value to the table on their own... These are the parasitic individuals we see all over the place within corporations today - often with fancy sounding job titles (always telling someone under them to be sure THEY get CC'd on YOUR email to so and so'.... even though they won't be part of the actual solution at any point in the process). And when you ask your boss what they were actually hired for, even he doesn't know?!? In short, many so-called micromanagers are actually engaging in a strategy to protect themselves - keeping the attention focused on others, so fewer people notice they are not bringing real value to the organization on their own..😉

@olivetree5670 2 года назад

Can't agree more to this. They bring zero value. Wait. Negative value. They just circle around with their petty tactics, dragging more and more people involved to cause drama. Why? They have no intention to solve problem. They are just looking ways to avoid taking any accountability. These ppl really got to go from leadership position. Very subtle yet incredibly toxic.

Here is the BEST way to deal with a 'Micro-Manager'. Either quit on the spot or give your one days' notice. Zero explanation. A 'Micro-Manager' can NEVER be reached, period. To think otherwise is to be even more delusional than the 'Micro-Manager' themselves. Do yourself a favor and leave immediately. If more employees where to exercise and implement these personal boundaries and tactics, failing companies would have the choice to either hire proper supervisors or go bankrupt. Cheers.

My "micromanager" seems to have OCPD and Narcissism. It's like they are stuck in a single-player video game where everyone is an object and a rival, and they got very good at superficial lingo, but don't seem to really understand the object of the game. You get stuck repeating the same entry-level tasks while being treated like you have never done them before. All I know is Grey Rocking everything about them. They are so stuck on themselves that I try be incredibly boring and non-reactive to them, and I keep pivoting my attention to what is healthiest for me at all times. If I want to do something I don't ask permission, I just do it. If they try to silo me away from people, I play aloofly social with whomever I want and act like I don't notice their territoriality. I stay professionally pleasant, and privately growing.

She has overburdened my workload. She will not listen or comprehend when I say something. Forgot how we did things in the past. Everything has to be her way. I shouldn't have to quit because of poor, really poor management. It frustrates me that nobody does anything about these people. I've even filed a formal complaint because of some of the things she's said to me and how she treated me. Unfortunately she has turned me into a "just don't care" kinda gal. I'm okay with being let go, but I won't quit.

This isn’t necessarily an acute observation on my part, micromanagers are ineffective and insecure as you pointed out. They are oftentimes lazy and want you to pick up the slack on behalf of the ineffective employees who should have already been fired. Every expectation is imposed on me, as if I’m the savior. Yet, no one else has to adhere to policy. And when I address the issue and call a spade a spade, I’m automatically marked, chided, and dismissed as a disgruntled employee. What a Circus.

But because she's inept , she rather make huge issues over the trivial things (like being a dictator on filing unnecessary repetitive documents).

I think the problem is too many managers were promoted for that position which they were not yet qualified to do. I work for an owner who is actually great most of the time. But then he goes through these irritating phases where he gets out of control and starts micromanaging everyone to the point of hair splitting. He usually in a manic stressed out state during that time. Everyone feels it. It makes you want to just be able to quit.

@davideyt1242 Год назад

Now short and simple, what a micro-manager really is, from a person with over 20 years of industry experience: 1. Insecure (sometimes it also comes from incompetence - some of them get the job, not because they were the best fit or talented) 2. Power trip (some people get promoted to a senior / management role after many years of being insignificant, and it gets the best of them - depends on their character) 3. Control issues (related to #1, they feel that they "must" maintain total control over everybody they manage, otherwise, it will not end up well for them) 4. Trust issues (related to #1 and #3) thank me later PS: Tip - if your manager is this type, don't think you can change him/her or learn to leave with their abusive behavior. only way to get it better will be to find a way to not be managed by this manager anymore (either and on rare cases - moving inside the company, but in most cases.. switching companies)

I think there is an extremely fine line between a good manager who is on top of things, and doesnt let things go wrong.. and a 'micro manager'. I would love nothing more than to let people get on with things (the things ive gone over with them numerous times) and not have to worry. But the second i take my eye off the ball, mistakes happen, and i am the only one responsible for any of them. I struggle because one person in particular (the one that called me a micro manager) is under managed! There is lots i would like to ask them to do but i worry they will take it the wrong way or feel overworked (they aren't).

She didn't believe us when we told her we were out of thank you cards that get sent to customers, she actually had the nerve to call an employee that left a few months prior, to make sure that the thank you cards were almost depleted. Even though we had a list of customers we gave the cards out to, she didn't believe us. She was out of control! I'm so glad I don't work there anymore! When I started my new job, I had 4 people tell me they wanted to work for my new job. lol Right before I left, I found out, in order to keep people, she'll buy cars or give employees loans, so that they'll stay. If the employee tries to leave, she'll say, I bought you a car and this is how you repay me?!" She pays everyone minimum wage no matter how long they've been there, but she can pay for cars for at-least 5 different people?! Which is also weird because she always had us use our own cars when we met up with clients, but she couldn't get a company car for us to drive, instead of putting miles on our cars?!

I see the micromanaging as coming from two places (at least where I work): 1. A person that's not competent in the disciplines they are managing, was made the manager of a number of mid-to-senior grade employees. But doesn't really know anything about the topics they are supervising. So, in order to subordinate their employees and emphasize "who the boss is" they will fall back to pedantic and trivial ways to show they are in charge. 2. A zero defect mentality and a motivation focused on not "looking bad" (as an organization, directorate, office, etc.) means there will be a focus on process instead of outcomes or results. Put it all together and we have a convoluted staff process that is so paralyzed with double and triple checking every detail, even details that don't matter, that it's hard to even schedule a meeting. (Because the slides that we are told we must have for a meeting are checked by the boss and the bosses boss with revisions that will then need to be checked again... 10 or 15 hours wasted on this just to hold a 40 minute meeting) And it's everyone in the office that receives this "guidance." What could be a really good job has become a terrible one because of this... Oh well... I get paid a LOT, so at least there's that...

Micromanagers don't want you to use your brain, and they end up doing your job for the most part (which begs the question why did you hire me)? It's insidious, and unless for some reason someone would not want to use their brain, not a place to stay long term. Extraordinarily wasteful of both micromanager's and employee's time (not to mention being one of the reasons people head for the hills the company will then have to hire and train new people). But micromanaging is a habit, and habits are hard to break. It's hard to understand how Senior Managers don't see it sometimes when it's obvious to everyone working for the micromanager. The other danger of working for someone like this? YOU could become a micromanager yourself!! If all you know/see is micromanaging, you may forget there are normal ways of managing people that are much more productive and healthy.
