[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are trying to make you not file for uninsurance. And the whole 'reference' thing is dead. This isn't 1960 where nepotism runs the world. I've had new hires tell me flat out that they left the previous employer because: - they were overworked and denied PTO - they were underworked and treated like an admin - they were hit on by senior management - they failed to do unethical things - they were harassed by insecure higher ups And you know what? I believed them all.[/quote] Thank you! Totally agree! OP- I wouldn’t stay if I were you. They said your performance was subpar but did they give you a chance to correct? Now they are hanging a reference over you? I’m pissed off for you that they are playing these games. It sounds off to me. Never trust your employer to do the right thing or “be nice” Bottom line….their business comes first. Your health and sanity also comes first. Leave this job off your resume imo. You don’t have to tell anyone about it. You don’t have a gap - you are in grad school. I’ve rarely had references called. Only in education and that was definitely a toxic environment. I’m sorry people are being hard on you OP. Ive been in the workforce for a while and I don’t put up with this bs anymore. They should have come to you earlier. If you want to leave - do it. You won’t burn bridges if you bow out with respect and appreciation for the opportunity. You now know more about your strengths and weaknesses with this experience to take into your next endeavor. Best wishes for your new endeavors! [/quote]
