Quid Pro No

A deceptive workplace maneuver in which an employee is offered a favor or opportunity (typically a job or promotion) by their boss under an implied quid pro quo—but instead of reciprocating the “quid” directly, the employee skips the middleman and delivers the “quo” to the boss’s boss.

When Dave hinted that Rachel could get the senior manager role if she helped him “off the record,” she pulled a classic Quid Pro No—she took the quo straight to the VP and walked out with the promotion and left Dave with blue balls and self doubt.
