My boss made a mistake on a project we were working on and instead of owning his mistake, he said
it was my fault. I sat through that meeting feeling shocked and disappointed. When we left the meeting he told me, "You are a good sport.” I knew I needed to start planning my exit strategy. I loved my job but I couldn’t trust my boss. He would throw you under the bus in a heartbeat to make himself look good. It's demotivating being under a manager who does not stand up for their team. If you made a mistake, he would transform into judge, jury and executioner. In spite of how good a job is, once you don’t have a manager that has your back, you will be miserable in that job. A bad job with a Good Boss is better than a Good Job with a bad boss. Agree?
