I resigned from my position as I was told that I hadn't passed my probation period, it was going to be extended .....and if I didn't do exactly what was asked of me, I'd be fired. Now, I suppose I had the last laugh as this type of bullying & ruling by fear made me decide that I couldn't and would not work for people/ company who treat individuals like this. I applied for a competitor, got the job, better pay, and a clear and fully supported career path.
This seems to ring true from all the reviews i have seen regarding the bullying issue.
