Hi,
I had joined a new Company one year ago.Initially,due to Project issues-i was on bench.
Just a brief -i have 5+ Years Testing Experience.
Then,I was choosen for a Project which our Company did not get but talks were on going on.
I took the initiative of leading a 6 member Team to work in the Project.None of the 6 members had any exposure to the tools being used.
I took up the Task and put in everything so that the work is liked by Client and MY company gets the entire Project.
(1) My efforts worked out,and we got the Project.It was a product Testing.
(2)Within 3 months the Team received the Client Award.
Pain part is I received no support from my India office-nothing.It was me who ran for everything.
Since i was new to the company and the Team was in its NASCENT stage and no support-all documentation was in emails.
Gradually,i started the Testing Documentation.
NOW,twist is here.My Manager has changed and on the first day itself scolded me black and blue for not having all documents with COMPANY’s templates.
He is such a person that he dint even listen to how the Project came up and how i was getting it stabilized.
he did the worst-Just went ahead and complained the higher management find all loop holes in the work and I was the key wrong person.
I felt extremely dis-appointed because it was me who worked with the Team in getting the Project and gradually making it stable.
NOT a single word about them.
ONLY QUESTION IS I AM NOT CAPABLE AND HENCE DINT CREATE DOCUMENTS.SO HE GAVE THE WORK TO HIS LIKEABLE PERSON.
But,i know that in the past-any document i sent to my earlier manager said fine AND stressed to track through mails.
so please help me by writing a LETTER to HIGHER Management that i had comeup with many new ideas,created documents but no one took interest in it.
so that the higher management is fully aware of the entire thing that its a new Team,still I grew it up and created documentation without any support.
Thanks
Rohit

This is a very sticky situation. When you go over your managers head, management gets suspicious of you! Even if they take it seriously and not as some disgruntled employee blowing off steam, they will undoubtedly discuss it with your manager. This will degrade your position with him even further. Your manager does not sound like he is very good at management. He either has a specific skill they hired him for or they aren’t aware of his shortcomings.
Your best bet is to get know the higher ups in the company on an informal basis. Let them know what you’ve done and are doing. Then if it comes to any confrontation you will have credibility.
