My organization has started writing people up for extremely minor things. Like a new policy implementing a fake due date for a randomly recurring thing (which precedes the real due date) was implemented last month and this month they are writing up people who failed to calculate the fake due date (real due date comes out in an email when the sporadic thing is due, fake due date is mathed). Similar but different, I was written up for something that happened a year ago that was objectively a good and beneficial decision which brought in lots of money. HR failed to find a policy that I violated but the write up stands. At the same time I’m told I’m a valuable employee and getting pep talks about hanging in there. What the actual F?! Why would an entire organization do this? I’m failing to understand the strategy and I’d love to get a more senior’s take.
I am obviously looking but the job market is bad, and I feel trapped in an abusive relationship.
