I had some meetings with HR before the rating came out. They didn't really address this lack of previously agreed to accommodations. Now I've reached out for further clarity since the rating came down and they have been radio silent for a week or two. As for how reasonable the ask was, it was just to have additonal coaching, like a 1-on-1 every week instead of every two weeks so I can get more pertinent feedback to make any changes. For 5-6 months, I wasn't even given the normal level of coaching eith fewer than one meeting per month. I've been documenting everything for a while now. I don't want to go the lawyer route, but I feel like I have too.





> 1-on-1 every week

That’s just normal to me.


Yeah, here it is every two weeks without accommodations (or supposed to be).

This place is doing other shady stuff. My previous meeting with HR was about expectations around work complexity. Internal postings and the external posting for this role state that this is for intermediate work of moderate complexity. There's another internal document that says medium to high work for this level. However, the grammar that is used suggests the high part is just so they don't have to promote you if you are doing some high complexity work. This is further supported by their example of a medium to high task - resolution of a production issue (I have several examples of this). I have a secondary role for 10% of my time and the guy that runs that says my work is medium to high complexity and is giving me exemplary feedback. Even my manager put that I have high productivity and completing satisfactory work for low and medium complexity work. He also said that we didn't have much high complexity work this year, so there was limited opportunity for it. None of it makes sense to me.

There's another guy on the team that is my level that was promised a promotion if he stuck around, but they reneged. Even my manager told me if I were on another team, I'd probably be promoted, but the department head was targeting me for a PIP earlier in the year for some unknown reason. So even without the disability part, what they are telling me isn't matching the policies.
