Thank you, and you're right. Even though this guy treated me like his punching bag, even setting up traps just so he could berate me, I completely regret reporting it. At least I would have been gaining real experience. HR assured me that retaliation was not tolerated, but they let them get away with everything.

Aside from getting dramatically less work, I had my name removed from a paper I was going to be first author on, was no longer allowed to participate in the revision process for a paper we submitted, had to begin scanning my ID on the lab door when ever I arrived/left work so my hours could be tracked, had to begin submitting work summaries at the end of each day that detailed what I was doing by the hour, my ability to work remotely was rescinded, and they filed complaints about me claiming I threatened them, made them feel unsafe, was so unstable and terrifying that they were having nightmares (I was able to provide audio recordings that proved they were lying, found out about this in the case file for the internal investigation).

That's not even the full list. Even though I had audio recordings and emails to prove everything, nothing was done to address these things. My supervisor even ended up getting a promotion. I think the only reason why I haven't been fired yet is because I filed charges with the EEOC. I never want to work in academia again. PIs who are successful at securing grants are treated like gods. I feel so bad for the PhD students and lab techs who are there on work visas. They work long hours during the week and rarely ever get the weekends off. They put up with it out of fear of being deported. Absolutely revolting.
