Quick Summary

A chartered accountant's sibling is seeking advice because their brother, despite being qualified, is consistently assigned complex tasks by a less experienced senior colleague. The senior then presents the completed work as their own, leaving the brother without recognition. The sibling is looking for guidance on how to address this common corporate issue, as they have no personal experience in such situations.

04 May 2020 Dear Sir,

I want to take advise from you experts for people working in corporate world.

My younger brother is a Chartered Accountant and is working in a well known company from the past two years in Corporate finance department.

His senior to whom he reports is not a Chartered Accountant but is working in the company from the past 12 years. Hence is given the senior position.

The problem my brother faces is that whenever a difficult assignment is given by the head of the department to the senior person, he gives all the work to my brother and my brother completes the work and email it back to the senior person. The senior person directly emails this work to the concerned party marking cc to his boss which suggest that all the work has been done by him.

It is a case like my brother doesn't get much credit for all the work he does and his senior doesn't have much knowledge of handling complex issues and takes the credit for free.

I am into profession so have no idea of dealing with such kind of situation. Can anyone here suggest me what can I do for my brother as this thing might be common in coropate world.

Regards,
Divyesh Jain

08 May 2020 This is very much common in corporate world. But this practice can not be carried out for very long and once they have to face the problems live and take actions they will definitely fail. I do not think time in the organisation matters unless you learn and gain insights out of it in an organisation.
