Holy awkward Batman!
OK, let me start this by saying I work under a couple guys who can be very pushy, bossy and sometimes just not nice people. If you are the type who can take things personal, you probably wouldn't like them at all.
One of them is always bumping heads with another co-worker of mine also in a position of authority but still technically under them (a woman twice my age who is sweet as pie).
Anyways, we all held a meeting earlier today with a client who can be difficult, demanding, split staff and often lie about stuff in general. The meeting got pretty heated, and I guess my female co-worker got upset with the way my boss had treated her in front of the client and other professionals from a different agency.
After the meeting we all walked out together and they got into it. She actually was in tears and this was all in front of me. They then followed me to my car and were still going back and forth.
I quickly excused myself but feel bad. Other people I work with have complained about my boss (and the other male boss) but they also are people who tend to take things REALLY personal. I basically just ignore these two and do my work and don't get involved with them unless I have to.
Anyways, I don't know where I am going with this..........just wondering if anyone else has been in this situation before. This is the 2nd time I have witnessed this lady cry related to my boss.
I guess I just don't want to be sucked into anything!!!!

How is your relationship with your boss? can you talk to him about the reaction the employee is having? It CAN be considered hostile work environment.

I'd really rather NOT go there. Especially with his personality. I think that he was trying to use a strategy with the client to make him feel he had someone else to turn to, but in the midst of that, the employee was feeling like he was not advocating for HER and all the work she's done with him.
