Hello, curious lang if red flag to. I know na legal to pero parang sobra naman 75 days na rendering? Tapos may option to shorten pero depende pa sa management.

I have an ongoing case at NLRC against my employer. So, I consulted sa PAO NLRC. While waiting for my turn, Ginoogle ko yung question ko then it gave me a specific answer with a reference pa sa Supreme Court website. Nung turn ko na, I asked the same question sa PAO but I was shocked sa sagot nya and it contradicts sa sinasabi online and nag ask pa yung lawyer sa katabi nyang lawyer and unsure pa yung lawyer sa sagot nya. Gusto ko sana ipamukha yung sa PAO lawyer yung na-Google ko baka ma-offend lang. Mukhang di updated yung PAO na kahit simple Google masasagot agad.

[First of all, I am consciously aware that this setting isn’t under a legal area, therefore, I am not protected by the Labor Code.]

Please note that I was still under training/nesting at the time, and as a new hire, I was relying on guidance from my superiors regarding processes and expectations.

It all started when I was misdirected by a TL, and HR that ultimately led to my termination— without any prior warning, notice, or opportunity to correct any alleged issue. To possibly protect their positions, they pivoted based on a made-up rule that had never been clearly communicated to me beforehand, which made the decision feel arbitrary and unjust.

It really frustrated me, because I was singled out that easily as if I wasn’t pushing genuine efforts to help revive your severely low to zero traffic models during the training. Mind you? I was able to secure a few sales despite assigning me dead accounts, which demonstrates that I was performing my role and the job.

As you can see, I am that deprived and desperate that I willingly accepted the open exploitation and lowballing.

To be honest, many of the leaders and advisors I worked with were positive and welcoming, which makes the abrupt nature of this decision even more unfortunate. However, the way I was dismissed felt sudden, unsupported, and unfair—especially given the lack of notice, no due process and the lack of accountability from those involved.

Grabe na po yung burnout, anxiety, and feeling ko depressed na rin ako dahil sa dami nang inasikaso ko. Backlogs ng pinalitan. Pag correct sa mistakes.

Gusto ko na magresign kasi feeling ko hindi ko na nagagawa nang maayos yung work ko nung magsimula akong ma anxiety and overthink. Kahit anong gawin ko nattrigger ako tuwing pumpasok ako.

Pano po ba ang tamang proseso.

Hello po! Question lang ulit regarding NLRC. First hearing session po kasi namin this Wednesday. If nagdecide po makipag settle nalang yung company, may mabibigay na po bang amount ang arbiter based sa reklamo naming illegal dismissal?

I worked at a startup company where our department only had around 3 to 5 people.

I already noticed some red flags early on sa glassdoor reviews but I accepted the job because I was a fresh grad and badly needed income at the time.

The environment ended up being exactly like the reviews said. Constant micromanagement, poor communication, unpaid overtime and the team lead didn’t really guide or support us properly.

Whenever deadlines came and things went wrong dahil sa poor leadership, the blame would still fall on us and kami pa rin ang kailangan mag overtime.

Two weeks before I resigned, I was crying straight for two weeks from stress and still doing overtime just to meet deadlines because of poor leadership and planning.

There were days na hindi na ako nakakakain ng dinner dahil sa OT and my hair was already falling out from stress.

There were also times when I felt mocked and belittled by our lead and even when obvious na siya yung may mistakes, he would focus more on making himself look good to upper management rather than guiding and protecting us.

Eventually, I resigned without a backup plan. I knew it was risky and not really recommended to resign nang walang backup, but my mental health had gotten so bad that I couldn’t take it anymore.

Luckily, our contract didn’t require a rendering period naman, so I took a month break, applied elsewhere and found a healthier workplace after a month.

Now I’m in a much better environment and honestly I’m having so much fun working again. Sobrang laking difference when you’re in a workplace that treats people properly.

Though recently, I noticed one of my former coworkers viewed my profile and had the “open to work” frame on his profile picture.

So I checked my former coworkers' profiles and found out that around one to two months after I left, three more people from my department also resigned, sunod sunod na sila bawat month.

Those employees (including me) also lasted longer than the average employee. Usually kasi people would leave after 1 to 3 months sa sobrang toxic environment so I was surprised that they quit.

Even though previous employees had already left before, my former coworkers still chose to stay at that time so I really thought they would stay na for good. It was only after I quit that they ended up leaving too.

Currently, the company is still hiring for roles specifically from our department including one for my previous role. I think hanggang ngayon they’re still trying to replace me and the others who left.

Knowing all of that felt so satisfying and validating on my part. It made me wonder ano kaya nangyari after I left.

I really do think my former coworkers deserved so much better though and I hope they find a company that treats them well too.

Hi I received termination today (April 20) and effectivity nya sa (April 30). Which is kinda crazy na since wala pang 30 days Ang noticed and wala talagang noticed at all. Ang reasoning nya ay poor performance daw, absences and may financial problem daw Ang company.

-illegal dismissal

-no contract

-no benefits

-no holiday pay

- emotional damage din po ako since halos everyday ako sinisigawan

-daming kaltas sa payslip ko randomly

Nag file na din ako sa Sena today. And waiting pa ko sa call or whatever steps.

Ang question ko lang dito pwede ba ko mag settle nalang for financial? And how much po Kaya Ang possible?. Ayaw ko na po kasi talaga umabot pa sa kung saan since wala akong financial capabilities (breadwinner din po kasi ako Kaya napakalaking problema po na Nawalan ako ng Trabaho bigla) para e support yung mga lawyers and di na po talaga Kaya ng mental health ko.

Last week was hell week.

Kaka one year ko lang last month sa LOB nato.

Napansin ko na kaagad kung gaano kalala sila mag micromanage.

Gustong gusto ng Managers mabango sila sa Local Partners sa US to the point na totoxicin nila mga empleyado nila.

I have this colleague na SME namin.

Actually, ayoko nagtatanong sa kanya kasi passive aggressive siya. Not helpful at all.

Kaso etong gagang Manager ko, gumawa ng rule na dapat don lang kami mag ask ng question sa SME na yun.

TBH, ayoko talaga.

Pero kesa pagtripan ako at ipowertrip ni Manager, sumunod na lang ako.

Never pako naka-experience ng pandedegrade sa ilang years kong pagwowork sa kanya lang.

Galing nako sa BPO dati, lahat na halos ng worst na ugali nakita ko don pero never akong binastos ng mga tao don.

I was asking her a questin regarding sa process, instead of answering professionally and like a helpful SME as she should, sinagot sagot niya ako ng pabalang na parang ambobobo ko.

She called me as well at sinama si Manager at isang kawork just to humiliate me.

I really want to report this to HR kaso diba HR is never our friend.

Baka instead ma-reprimand si GAGA, ako pa bullyhin nila.

Sobrang dami na pala niya binully at ginagago gago ng sagutan sa work, one time pa daw may kawork kami na muntik na mag resign kasi sinabihan niya ng "BOBO".

This is so fucking unprofessional and nakaka degrade ng pagkatao.

Hindi ako bobo sa process, may mga ibang process na talagang hindi ko alam especially if first time ko pa lang ma-encounter.

Ang work namin, walang room for mistake kaya ko siya tinatanong kung ano ba gagawin ko kasi nga ayoko macompromise yung trabaho ko.

At trabaho niya din iguide kami ng tama kasi ng SME siya.

Gusto kong sumagot pero nagpipigil ako.

Kasi marami akong kawork na binubully nila ng mga Managers don.

Nag ask ako ng advise sa Husband ko and he told me na wag magsumbong sa HR kasi nga lalo daw ako pag iinitan.

Instead, if ever mag resign daw ako, barahin ko or real talk-in ko nalang kada may meeting.

Kaso ayoko bumaba sa level nila.

I want to do this the legal way.

I'm so fucking pissed kasi dahil sa pantotoxic nila last week, di ko man lang naipagluto ng masarap na dinner mga kids ko.

And nag trigger yung eczema ko.

Sobrang kati and kirot ng mga kamay ko.

I don't want this to happen anymore kasi baka hindi ko na mapigilan sarili ko.

Professional akong tao, di ako basta basta pumapatol pero may hangganan ako but I want to do it the right way.

Putangina niyo na mga kawork na feeling tagapagmana!

Sana hindi masarap ulam niyo hanggang sa susunod na henerasyon at kahit mareincarnate kayo.

Hindi ako na regular sa previous job and apparently may mga missing goods na iccharge saming mga staff. Pinapirma nila kame ng document na we authorize them to deduct the amount from our salary pero after few days, na terminate na ako.

Sa last pay ko, 13k na sahod ko naging negative pa kasi yung deductions ay 15k. I don't think that was fair. And during signing nung authorization, walang nakalagay kung magkano amount. Nakareceive na ako ng confirmation pero wala pa date ng hearing.

Personal ba ang hearing or may laban ba ako dito?

I cant tell the industry kasi medyo maliit lang and feel ko mahahalata na ako to hahaha

Na-turn down ko naman na itong job na to pero gusto ko lang marinig yung thoughts if tama ba desisyon ko hahahaha

This happened last month. Around 12 am, nagreply sila sa email ko na may interview ako the next day. Yup, 12 am. I went there sa company and they hired me on the spot. Based sa skills ko and forte, pasok na pasok din sa kanila yung ginagawa ko. Parang kind of formality lang yung interview which is kind of too good to be true. I told them anong asking salary ko, they negotiated, tapos we agreed sa price. I was asking them ng official JO man lang para makita, pero wala pa raw. Pero gusto na nila akong papirmahin ng "contract" na again, hindi pa nila pinapakita. On that same day din. Sabi ko, pag-isipan ko muna.

After 2 days, I accepted the offer. I said na mag-sstart ako after 3 weeks (kasi I have planned vacation), and they said yes. But still no JO.

Tumagal ng 2 weeks and I was expecting na at least, ia-add ako sa gc nila or orientation man lang anong system nila, but still ... nothing. Sabi nila sa actual date daw ng balik ko sa office, pipirma na ako ng "contract".

Fast forward, bumalik na ako from vacation. Pumunta ako sa company nila thinking na pipirma lang ako ng contract. Pero pinaupo ako along with other bosses and ino-observe ko sila to work. Yung kausap ko during interview, narinig ko na sinabi nha sa other boss na sinadya niyang hindi ako i-add sa gc muna kasi may mga away daw. And no'ng inadd ko, marami ngang away. Narinig ko rin na sinigawan yung isang magiging kasama ko sa position. After 3 hours, I followed up yung contract (in a nice way) pero dulo daw yun? Idk crazy.

Tapos pinapagwork na ako. Nung hindi ko forte yung pinapagawa and sobrang layo sa interview, sinabi ko na di ko forte and sinungitan ako ng boss.

I kinda felt panic attack kasi parang ang weird ng vibes and wala pa naman akong pinipirmahan. Nagsabi nalang ako na may emergency pero umalis na talaga ako.

Pinapabalik uli ako ng morning nung nag interview sa akin, discussing the role daw. Naisip ko, 3 hrs ako nandun, still NO JO and NO CONTRACT, hindi pa ba yun enough? hahaha hindi na ako bumalik

TLDR: Hired yet NO JO and NO Contract

So ... tama naman desisyon ko diba? Money-wise, lugi din pala ako pamasahe and mas narealize ko

⚠️ TLDR; A $1.00/hour agency abruptly terminates me without notice and a single warning.

Nag papart time lang ako sa isang private school dito sa laguna. Sobrang nakakasawa na talaga ang admin- HR, Facilities, Accounting.

Sobrang process for the sake of process e no. Daming paper pushers, sobrang hierarchical pa. Naninibago ako at nanggaling ako sa isang Filipino conglomerate, pero Kahit senior VP na kausap mo, para lang kayo magkapantay.

Eto talaga nag tip off sakin ngayong term. Lahat ng part timers, mag clearance. Tapos ito ay manual mong isesend sa isa isang approver. 6 approvers all in all.

Nong huli, ginawa ko, sharepoint. Shared file para isang link lang. Ayaw, ang ginagawa download, sign then send back as attachment.

Ngayon, sinend ko via docusign -which is more digitally secure btw. Ayaw pa rin, IT Governance guidelines ek ek. Wala naman ganon ang school.

Power tripping lang talaga itong director na ito na ayaw pumirma via docusign eh dahil daw sa Internal IT Governance.

So ending, isa isa mong download at send sa isang approver.

Not much effort really- but this is a part time work and admin work arent even paid. Were paid for the teaching hour.

And we're here complaining about government being digitally inefficient.

Part time ako sa branch na yon then after ko na magpaalam na magreresign na, tinapos ko muna yung scheduled na duty ko. Okay lang ba kung hindi ko na balikan yung store na yon para magclearance/resign formally? di ko na rin kasi nakausap yung store manager dahil di nagtutugma availability namin hanggang sa umabot na nang mahigit 6 months, plus wala na rin akong energy puntahan yung store since literal na mahirap syang puntahan gawa ng location if hindi ka sasakay sa provided na service nila

How would you handle a criticisim to those under you.
