How do I handle the way a supervisor makes derogatory comments towards one of my colleagues?

He is fairly new (no more than 4 months at his position) and instead of coaching his employees, he often criticizes their intelligence. It can be humiliating at times for my coworkers. Should I report it to HR or speak to my supervisor directly? I don't want stir up trouble and I don't want there to be backlash on my end.


Why do poor sales/business leaders get golden parachutes

Hey ya T. Rowe fam,

Honest question - why is it that if you're a moderately senior person on the Distribution/Sales side of the business you get a golden parachute (I'm assuming) while so many others just get the boot unexpectedly? Globally it looks like a few of these sales people "retire" or "leave to pursue other opportunities". At the company a lot of the sales people seem to not win much while lose a lot of clients and business. Like a few seem to have come from less well known competitors in the industry and didn't have any demonstrable track record. There's also some that have a track record of bullying. It seems on the investment side of the business there are a lot of well educated, high performing people. The same can't be said for the sales people. The ones that don't get a golden handshake just seem to keep their job and hang on. I chat with some of them and a few are good operators but they're the minority. Honestly, why are the salespeople here rewarded for doing nothing, or even destroying value in some cases.


PepsiCo has turned into a straight-up hellhole

It’s no longer a job, it’s survival mode every single day. Layoffs keep rolling in like clockwork and management counts on everyone being too scared to fight back - and they're right! Everybody stays quiet and the bullying and power trips just keep getting worse. I’ve never seen morale this wrecked or people this scared to breathe wrong at work.


Why would anyone want to work here?

Oh right, because there aren’t that many different options out there. They’ve cornered us into putting up with absurd levels of bullying, pressure, overtime, and exhaustion, while the only payoff is the chance we might get to keep our jobs. Just might. This is a sc--wed-up system, and State Farm has turned it into an art form.
