I'm an extroverted techie that was laid off 3 months ago when I was working as an IT account manager at a large corporation the 9 months I was employed at this "too big to fail" corporation, I was being as proactive, honest, open minded, willing to help and ready to get the job done
With no training, no mentor and our IT infrastructure burning all over the place I was doing a true, honest and immense effort to get my job done to the point of waking up everyday at 4am to get to the office at 6am and left at 7pm and yet I was fired with no reason.
My manager wasn't really technical, usually he was just starting blaming campaigns all over the place to blame every other department even from our own responsibilities instead of trying to proactively help fix the problems, nor went to the office because he was staying at home (I just saw him 4 times in my 9 months) and out of nowhere he put on my shoulders 3 projects at the same time, and after I took ownership of the 3 of them, and dealt with them accordingly and were going fine. Despite me carrying myself and executing the 3 proyects in parallel, my manager decided to take away from me 2 of the 3 projects and made me train my coworkers, and with the last one he personally tried to sabotage/crash it himself (from my perspective), setting me up several traps, which I did no fall for and yet I kept pushing the last project going until the day I was fired.
To my surprise later I found out from my coworkers that my manager was telling me something and doing the exact opposite on my back and my managers manager was doing the same so at least they were on the same frequency but apparently I wasn't, so something was wrong (maybe me)
We got to a point where he was being aggressive with me all the time and getting angry for no particular reason, criticizing to my face on private when all the others departaments and even my assigned clients were praising me in front of him, however at the same time my manager was only looking for a way to document my mistakes (Im guessing to fire me without benefits) instead of delivering value to the client
In my head NOTHING made sense, I felt, I was dealing with a Kid instead of an adult, when I was fired and left with benefits I actually felt relieved because in my head I had found the first company in the world "where being proactive gets you fired"
After being fired I just kept my head up and got a way better job as a sysadmin with 100% remote work and twice the pay at a startup, but I keep reading in this subreddit how important are office politics, here at the startup I work for now they don't seem to be that important to succeed career wise, the owner is a technical leader and a human leader willing to spend the time doing things right than in delivering fast and wrong
However I have been reading similar stories to mine in this subreddit which make me wonder if my boss was really a sociopath or if i was the one actually not playing by the "rules", that I might be the one wrong here.... maybe... It's not like I failed to do my technical job, it seems I failed at playing the politics game, and I still do not know how to play it
Right now my current company is great, but in the future I might end up working at another company like the one I just wrote about, and I don't think I might make it
So, what are the rules? how do you play it?
