I did have a question that was not covered concerning whether this company was researched by this individual prior to acceptance of the job offer. (It was stated that they recruited for this person (probably using a headhunter services). I, personally from experience, tend to view any headhunter approaching me, with skepticism because they are known not to present the full nature of the job but push an upsell move to make one feel needed by the company. From what I gather from this article, this company practices nepotism and tolerates this employee, who seems to have a close relationship with the VP but is definitely under qualified for the position or any position similar. Shortly after leaving this company, a review of the company dynamics needs to be posted online for those researching the company, since they obviously are not going to change their “stripes”.
This is the type of employer/employee relationship which is causing staffing shortages.

Ooof, that hits home. I’m not in the same position as OP but I had to come to the realization this year that the bad behavior (ie ignoring instructions from C-suite) of a VP level person was never going to stop. She had been *rewarded* for that behavior by the C-suite.

Yeah, I’d split. The culture is toxic, the bosses suck, and what is up with that employee? I’m wondering if he wanted to move into the OP’s position. They might not have recruited internally for it and now he’s sabotaging OP to position himself as a replacement.
I hope the OP realizes that this is not about them, not at all. It’s not a failure on their part but on this horrible company.

You could also submit a written rebuttal to the Supervisor’s statements and have that put into your Employee file. I have done this specifically when my side of the story was not asked for nor investigated, and I suffered a negative Job-impact from the Supervisor’s assumptions. Stand your ground while you are there, but as the advice said , do hunt down a better job because toxic bosses do not ever ‘get better.’
The statement: “People don’t leave bad jobs, they leave bad bosses” is 100-percent truth.
