(To be fair to the company it's hard to say whether it's the employer doing the bullying or just this mid-level employee whose doing it.)

The reason I suggested just doing the LinkedIn update is that it's so plainly ridiculous and easy to fix that if the PM truly thinks that's a measure that's important then give it to him. But then stand firm on whatever views you have on the OT.

Basically my gist was spend your energy and time fighting about something you care about, and at the same time show you're a 'team player' as you changed your linkedin status.

But it's all subjective, I continually change my views on how to handle issues like this in the work place, I tend to swing to each extreme as time goes on....I figure I'll get it right by the time I retire :)

But really...If I had other opportunities then I'd get the hell out.
