Had a toxic boss who had me be a workhorse, took credit for everything and would make underhanded threats, saying stuff like “feel free to look for another job” when asking about a raise 1.5y into my tenure. I was getting 75k as a software developer with no experience or degree which was ok at first but when my manager saw I was competent, the work piled fast.

It got so bad that one day I had to send a follow up meeting quoting stuff he said. I soon after got moved departments.

At this point I’m over it and the company and within 2 months, secure a new job for 135k + 10% yearly bonus doing the same exact thing.

When I left my toxic director said she was disappointed and the best feeling was responding “you’re entitled to your feelings but facts are facts” after taking a full 3 weeks pto (they don’t pay out) before quitting. Should’ve just gave me the measly 20% I originally wanted lol
