The reason why the Wellcome have a diversity section now, because when working as a Claims Administrator, I endured passive aggressive abuse and racial abuse (directly and indirectly) from 2004 until I reported it in 2005. Nothing came out of reporting the Office perpetrators but I know after I filed complaints to HR, most members of staff (including Doctorates) except myself had to attend a diversity course. I remember being in more quiet Office while they were having diversity training. Despite finding no evidence of wrong doing, my work life and load became more harder because of nefarious actions taken on the sly by members of staff (cannot detail for legal reasons) and my pay increase was halted and I became more psychologically and physically ill to the point I had to take Garden leave before my resignation date in 2006. They were giving me warnings about my work performance after I reported the perpetrators despite doing my work well from 2003 to 2005. After I reported the perpetrators, there were more resignations from members of staff from different racial backgrounds (one advising me to resign sooner). I would have left more sooner but my Mother manipulated me to stay a bit longer than I should (long story), when I knew deep down I shouldn't have! I have no intentions of sueing but back then, what was more important was my health and wellbeing which declined further anyway during my Garden leave to the point I had a nervous breakdown. Morally, I should have some kind of reparations because of the cruelty I endured but legally, the Wellcome are not obliged to give me Reparations unfortunately. But what is more important, I have my sanity back. I will leave it in God's good hands and I do genuinely hope the work environment has changed? However, despite the Office bullying I did have opportunities to discover science, innovation and work programmes. I did see Bill Gates and missed my invitation to see the Queen because I was away. I was able to use some of the facilities for free and my Manager was nice until incidents were reported. He is a nice man but under a lot of pressure because he was managing me. Some members of staff touched my heart and I will always remember the brightness coming from their soul. I did not want to depart from the Wellcome on bad terms because I did not have issues with all members of staff but I do wish them all the best and the newbies in front of me.
@dnbsush Thank you for your reply. I think I out-stayed my Wellcome at the Trust. People needs to know what happens in some corporate companies...I do not think they really wanted me long-term to be honest but I was young & not well versed when making some personal decisions; received some poor advice & not knowing about systematic racism. No-one at the charity company wants to take accountability from the top to grass roots...not everyone in my personal life, had my back (some enjoyed it that fact, I am going into a deep depression and knowing that I am going to lose my regular income). I wanted to take them to court but I had a nervous breakdown and I received little to no help because some people think I made it up and 'why a charity should be racist' mindset because,I am not in sales. I cannot get the time back while in depression and my financial losses and not having a full fledge career in my own right because of all the mental and environmental calamities. I have the most high to help me while I am on this planet. I know justice will be delivered while I am here or transition into spirit. No hater and racist from the top to the bottom can take this away even if they try to kill me physically or psychologically!! I know some cannot speak about their workplace even when they leave, because they signed a NDA also called a gagging order! I understand privacy protection but reporting a personal bad experience is like living under a dictatorship!
I don't know you, obviously, but what you have said here resonates with me a lot, and although your own circumstances seem rather different to that of mine, I have had a hell of a lot of problems with Wellcome Collection over the last 4-5yrs now. Sadly, I can't say that they have improved at all, even though this Video would like to suggest otherwise, I'm sure, as no company in their right mind would ever dream of showing themselves in the worst ever light, eh.
