I’m under a lot of stress at work because my manager keeps confronting me about a director I went to HR about almost a year ago – she was a very difficult person to work for and was very unethical at times – because I brought it to HR’s attention, she lost some of her power – my current manager was able to benefit from me doing this by becoming our new manager – but the thing is that I still have to work for this director indirectly and find that my manager takes her side when making desicions – my life is a living hell for the last year at work because it feels like I don’t have anyone on my side and I don’t know what to do – what would do???

I work for a large company with over 1000+ employees. There is one manager here that has been with the company for 30 years and has been very abusive to other employees without punishment. Not only is he explosive and verbally abusive, but also he has been physical such as throwing things, grabbing and slapping male co-workers as well as females! Our director has said nothing of this behavior tending to look the other way or encouraging us to ignore this bad attitude. The V.P of our department and Human Resources know the situation and despite being reported a few times, he still continues to work here today. What are the options for employees that have to endure this difficult person’s rage when a “Zero Tolerance Policy” isn’t even adhered to by the people who wrote it? Isn’t this Human Resource’s job to get rid of people like this?
