It seems to that females are doing most of the bullying and it's to other females. As we know, the typical female 'cattyness' is being brought into the workplace. I've experienced this and have had to leave a great job because of it. I have also experienced it in newer jobs. The entire workforce has changed. I'm finding that it is no longer good enough to come in, get along and do your job. We are now part of some reality show where you have to pass beauty and personality tests. If you don't walk, talk, think & act EXACTLY the same as everyone else. And if the entire company is not madly in love with you, then you are out. I once worked for a company whose supervisor REFUSED to train anyone NOT from his ' elite' side of the state. YEP. So I was automatically out there. One gal from my town had to lie and say she went to his highschool for a couple of years just to get him to answer a question. HE was born in an entirely different country, so I am not sure where this extreme bias came from. Of course, the other employees followed his lead and refused to talk with me while he was nearby. It was like being in school. That nightmare lasted 2 years. I still wonder why they hire people from areas that do not meet his approval. When I hired someone to do a reference check, they were told I was a great worker, but not the ' right fit'. I was told I was fired for making mistakes, if which I know is not true. Watch your back in these situations and double check all of your work. It is too bad that the workplace has reverted to some pre-70's lawlessness. These situations are exactly WHY workplace laws were enacted and somewhere along the way companies are thinking they are above them.
