Am I overthinking or is this guy an a-hole
Hi guys:
Im an analyst at a HF. We have 1 pm / group head, a few analysts, a few associates (junior to analysts). Analysts work on sectors and names within sectors. I cover a sector where I’ve looked at a few names in it - small sector not my main coverage. This sector has a few names that are hard to classify and overlap with another sector. Today I received an email from another analyst that he’s going to cover XYZ name (within the gray area) and he had no discussion with me or the PM. Just an email to me and PM saying he should cover it. I responded and said this is probably best for the PM to decide and from my perspective, prefer manager to decide my coverage rather than peer. Mind you he did not discuss this at all with anyone and just decided to work on the name and let me know. It’s not a clearly defined case where does it fit - think sth like a type of service that can go into either the end market or the service type. This person has repeatedly done the same - once saying Twitter belongs to consumer sector (his area) rather than tech, another time saying he had been talking to a few people on a name even though manager than assigned it to me. I think I made it pretty clear a few times in professional language this seems to be managers job to decide, not his job. Am I over thinking , or is this guy just an a-hole? What are practical ways to navigate the behavior? PM / HR don’t care. Thanks
For some context, he does it to other analyst too but less frequently. I have similar overlap with others but never had it been a problem so don’t think it’s me doing something unusual
He’s gonna take your lunch money next
OP here - for what it’s worth, I think he’s targeting me and it’s pretty clear it’s unprofessional in my opinion.
"small sector not my main coverage", "PM / HR don’t care.". There you go you have your answer. Either:
