Be careful of AI's Chen X-ling, a high-ranking smiling tiger.
If possible, try to keep your distance from her. People have all kinds of personalities and ways of thinking; as long as they are not too extreme or negatively affecting others, that is fine.
But she fundamentally cannot accept or acknowledge people whose inner perspectives and views do not align with hers.
She does not show this at first, but privately she will start calculating the gains and losses involved in scheming to drive these people out.
Once she has made her moves behind the scenes, you may find yourself unable to do much about her. The company is so small, and she has informants everywhere.
Even the people you can turn to for help may be on her side.
Her methods: At first, she acts as though she is helping you, taking on part of your workload, while skipping over issues and diminishing your presence.
She makes you either too busy or too idle, demeans you verbally, and after enduring her double standards for long enough, it is perfectly normal to complain in private—which her informants then amplify.
At that point, she will frantically look for weaknesses and collect them.
Once she has gathered enough, she will pick a day and opportunity to stab you in the back with all the unverified accusations at once.
The absurd part is that she is very lazy about managing, likes cultivating loyalists and informants, and is actually an employee herself yet considers herself management. She cannot accept other people’s private dissatisfaction and will pursue it relentlessly. Conversely, she likes hearing flattering words whispered in her ear. She also has a girlish side; you have to know how to put on an act to make her happier.
When you encounter this kind of situation, you really need to assess it carefully. This is just a traditional operations and maintenance center, so conservative thinking and a strong sense of hierarchy are unavoidable.
But at the same time, if you move to another job, your salary may be higher, your title may advance, and you may encounter more diverse perspectives.
There is no absolute right or wrong about this environment. If you are young, it is still better not to go there—it will waste a lot of your youth.
