Damn. That's some next level micro managing. Blessed to never have such managers
Seems like this is the result of many such instances where the kid pretty much showed himself to be unreliable. And the manager couldn’t fire him or get work done.
“You can’t fool me again and again”, “i have given you enough chances” - this is after it would have happened way too many times. People like this should be let go immediately.
Don’t think there is a victim in this case.
Valid point. We only know half the story
I had a similar reportee, however rather than asking him to share live location I gave him a fair warning that such unreliability will lead to low performance grades or worse termination. I also shared instances of situations where said person was unreliable and how that affected work helping him understand how his actions can be construed as unprofessional. Helped getting this reportee on track without escalating it further.
At this point I would just block the person on whatsapp
Why even give out your personal number? Just use a secondary prepaid sim for all this.
That's actually a decent idea. Work sim and personal sim should be separate.
Hard to do it though, especially with separating important logins for bank and various services. Bhasad wala kaam.
Maintaining 2 numbers will be messy. College mein easy tha but abhi bahut mushkil hai
I have seen such a manager unfortunately. Some Indian managers are a nightmare.
If you still want to work there use an app like "Fake GPS" or something to spoof your location.
Otherwise just get out of this company.
Toxic , Toxic Pro, Toxic Pro Max, Toxic Pro Max Chuti***, Indian Manager 🥰🥰🥰 Pls share my middle finger to him once you resign 😉
Missing a lot of context. Seems like you're not reliable. It may be unpaid leave and you could take 250 of these in a year and claim you're not being compensated - doesn't mean that you are useful to the company in any way. That you're lying about a sick leave might be a premise required to fire you for the manager. Plus you're a team lead and there's reason to think that you're a bad example to your team. That you've stayed at the company despite the "slavery" might be because you can get away with it here and cannot find employment of such convenience elsewhere. You stand to gain sympathy from slackers just like you from this post.
Can’t agree with you more. 💯💯
Damn looks like this is the norm.
Last week received a call from a recruiter - conditions where it's a full office role, not even hybrid.
No flexibility on timings as well, strict 10 - 7 not even 30min here and there allowed.
You either work from office or take leave, no in between.
Glad I turned down during the initial discussions itself, else would've faced something similar to this 👀
Indian corporate scene is an absolute shithole.
For context: Weekends are off. So just fri WFH. This is a Series B startup. I am not even asking for a leave but WFH for just 1 day. I joined recently. The only thing I did wrong was possibly informing a little too late.

Does the Toxic work culture only exist in India or outside India also the same? Are the international Managers good compared to Indian Managers?
With the recent EY episode, I thought I'll pen down some thoughts, having gone through something similar last year.
The mentality and attitude of Indian managers is the reason such things keep happening.what is missing in them is emp...
Just wanted to know why and how come our companies have horrible WLB and cultures compared to western counterparts. Is it the fault of the employees for accepting whatever and acting like sheep or is it just the mindset of the senior man...
Literally, every single Founder I've encountered here seems to be an old, regressive, hard-headed boomer who hates the younger generation for their freedom.
Go through some DINK or WFH or Salary Rant posts and you'll be able to spot th...
