  • What if the bully is also an exceptional worker hence management wont ever get rid of him?

    Taking that into account would be part of the taking stock of the political situation that I alluded to in my comment. However, it's worth noting that no matter what their other contributions are, a bully is acting in a deeply unprofessional way. In a functioning organization, holding them accountable should be the same priority as holding someone accountable who, say, steals or defrauds the organization (indeed, I would argue that typical forms of workplace bullying contain an essential element of deception and misrepresentation of work-relevant issues to both the victim and the org).
