I don't want this to turn into a political discussion. I'm not trying to bait a flame war, either. I'm just honestly asking if any of you have experienced this.
My former boss is Indian. Our team was basically a melting pot of every race and color until he started his tyrranical rule. Systematically, he separated all the people who worked well together, set them up for failure, and made their lives a living hell until they quit. Not a single non-Indian was treated this way; only the Americans or Hispanics were treated this way. I was the last non-Indian left on the team by the time I quit. Now, every single person is Indian the only employees are the manager and his two leads; the rest are contractors from Tata.
We went from being the highest performing team in the entire line of business to the biggest turd, all in about 2 months. This manager would support his buddies and let them gang up on you. If you said left, they said right. If you said up, they said down. They didn't document anything and they'd only spend time with each other, so you were on your own, set up for failure.
When I quit, he didn't even ask why. We were on the phone for maybe 60 seconds, going over who I should give my laptop. That's it.
What a prick. Anyone else have a similar experience?
