Email vs Chat

Do employees fight over text chat or mails ? How’s your company culture? Is it positive or don’t care or there’s Lafda going on between employee / management and there’s a show running always between these folks ? ( might be funny ) . What are some crazy dialogues used in mail/chat by folks at your company ?

I'll go first. It is mostly operational and never strategic. Updates, status, retention etc. What about you?

Co workers and colleagues who seem OK to talk and discuss in person turn passive aggressive and boss around on Slack channels. They use terms like “As discussed multiple times” , “despite mentioning” etc etc and when you talk to them in person everything seems fine and you start wondering why do they push others down in the first place? Is to to show seniors/managers that there’re more superior? How do you deal with such people? Any tips ?

Recently, a friend joined a bank. He was late to office a few times. To “teach him a lesson”, manager “changed his desk”. When he asked the reason for this, manager said “this is your punishment for coming late to the office”. I mean, is this school-level micromanagement rampant in your org as well?

Hello folks! Hope you're all doing well. What this post is: a place to hang around and chat just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss. Think of it like the watercooler at your office. Look forward to hearing from you all!

Do you think keeping or deleting slack off your personal phones gets you to better mental health and wlb? Not only slack but any work related stuffs

Some days ago my manager asked me not to get too involved in informal conversation with a female colleague. According to she, it can affect my appearance and hence my ratings :) The Nazi idiot missed part that Slavery is already abolished in our society and I am free to talk/flirt responsibly with whoever I like, as long as other person won’t mind in any space. Do you guys have this level experience with toxic/dumb managers ?
