ajit55518517yEspecially in product based companies, this hierarchical structure is vanishing. More managers are getting fired, and more developers are getting hired.

@ajit555 True and more coworkers are taking up the role of the now-fired managers

My first thought was that you should make a written complaint to this idiot, copying in his superiors. The problem is that in the corporate world, his superiors will then side with him and punish you. They all got where they are by being cunts, basically, and they feel threatened by talent. That's how the corporate world works - they all cover each others arses.

@ArcaneEye it's a valid option but sometimes running away may not be possible :)

Man I really really feel you and feel sorry for you, I hope your situation gets better
Dear "managers,"
Stealing credit for something you have not done is real theft.
When I come up with an idea and a detailed outline of how to build and deliver it, you do not get to say "oh I also had this idea." You did not. How could you? It uses tech you don't even know exists.
When I then proceed to build the whole thing on my own without any of your inputs (then again, you have no idea of how it works, what would you bring to the table), you don't get to parade my project in front of the board not even mentioning my name.
You see, it's not the first time you pull that off, you have taken full credit for every thing.
it's not just my wee feelings getting hurt for lack of recognition: it has real world consequences.
You get the promotion, you get the salary raise and you now live in a flat with a balcony and a view, while my wife and I share a studio as my salary has not budged.
You're a cunting thief, I hope your mom dies.
Best,
X
