My company is a midsize company with highly corrupt management.

I have once complained to my group head, who is two levels above my boss about such a incident in the project and how the project failed due to negligence and currupt practices of the vender and my immediate manger.

He promised to look into the matter . After sometime I was moved to a project away from the one I was working to something which do not involve major work/interaction with the vendor whom I pointed out. I am made to sit idle and harassed to a point to leave the company.

Talking to HR was also not helpful as now even the group head seems to be involved in this and in turn HR is helping the group monitor and they are misusing the power. There were many instances where instead of monitoring they have directly misused my email access my login etc. They are also using their power to stop me move internally into any other team(which is better for my visa situation).

I am not sure how to stand up as in the current scenario I have less immediate options to move out (immigrant being on visa and that to SME in a particular area tough to find jobs in same state) I am trying to learn and upskill to other technical areas where I have options to move out easily with in the same State.

Can an HR misuse the power and stop me from moving internally when I am eligible.

    You should be speaking with either an immigration attorney or employment attorney. If you can't afford one, try to find the local "legal aid clinic" in town and schedule an appointment for help. Good Luck.
