Maniac Manager

I am a former employee at amazon (I worked there 2 years full time after my internship). And I feel like sharing the story of my abuse. My manager there was a maniac that has only 1 goal (to kiss his manager ass and fool the people that he is doing a good job). Not only that but he was also severely depressed (every time with prominent dark circles around his eyes) and his attitude was not one of a normal human being at work (cursing every time, encouraging ratting your colleagues). 

After working at a couple of projects and doing a good job, being a scrum master, security reviewer, I asked if my work is enough for a promotion and I got a positive answer. I applied for the promotion (now they have a different process where you have to write your own promo doc) and when the feedback time came it was amazing! I never saw in my entire life so much lies, the manager bribed my colleagues to give me negative feedback so I will not get that promotion (the crazy manager admitted this to me).

He started to curse me every time he saw me even with others seeing what he was doing, sadly I told HR about this and they gave him some time off because he was a little bit stressed out by his job. WTF! He always played 2048 during his job, in meetings and he was not doing anything else than giving negative feedback about his team to his managers.

Thanks God I left that circus! After starting my career in that toxic environment, I started working for a decent company where people are treated right.
