Except your manager now "tells you" that your productivity should be +50% and if it isn't...
Nah, fortunately my manager is a good guy, CEO is just a pissy finance guy who got butthurt being disagreed with publicly and probably was on my manager's ass about it. He mainly criticised me, that I should've come to him first to discuss my concerns, and he would've helped me bring it up to thinskin execs privately.
I disagree with him, but get his point. I mean, the CEO did ask for comments during the meeting, I had comments
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Kinda sounds like CEO wanted to fire you, and manager had to stick their neck out to keep you.
I mean, even if he did want to, he couldn't. Labour laws in my country are fortunately quite robust. I'm pretty sure my manager didn't score any extra points with him, though, that's for sure.
