You mean smoking it? I don’t know about others but I love how it feels

Q. How to piss off employees? 
  
 A. Do a piss test.

The apple juice in the office fridge was not apple juice????

These Human Rangoli managers are jobless. Weed is more widely avl in the west so they do such tests. In India just basic checks to ensure people don't turnup intoxicated should do fine.  
 Ceos must always ensure adequate supply of colour powders at offices to keep these monkeys busy

Hi. Does anyone know if taking a sabbatical during pregnancy can lead to the company using this as a reason of non-performance to either fire the women or not provide her with the maternity leave benefits?

Context
1. Company is aware that the person is pregnant
2. Person in question has been with the company for 2+ years
3. Past appraisal ratings have been 'Exceeds Expectations' or 'Meets Expectation'
4. Sabbatical period could be 1-2 months. Maternity leave will not immediately start after the sabbatical

What's the craziest reason someone got fired?

Here's mine at my previous job. A collegue of mine was fired for smoking weed in the bathroom. He got back to his laptop and he was high as fuck, I am pretty sure he didn't even understand why he was getting fired.

Software Developer

Hello All,

My director told me that I am releasing from the project as my feedback is negative received from the client and I have been working for 6 months in the project 

For one or two days I tried to connect with my manager just to clear client people have done politics with me but he has not replied for 8 days. Then later I dropped a mail in detail. But still he didn't even reply not message me. 

Will they fire me based on client feedback? 

What's this policy to fire the employee?

Please reply me if you know the answer it helps to other as well.

Share your employer toxic trait/policy.

I'll go first 👇🏻

- My employer hired me when it was Fully WFH, now they force me to join office after 8 months of joining.
- Attend 5 days/week
- No hybrid
- Biometric system to track attendance 
- Complete 180 hours in a month or pay cut
- No relocation support
- Less appraisal (~5%) citing market conditions.
- Removed unlimited leaves just a few days below announcing WFO.

FYI: I was named best employee for 2023 Q1

Toxic company traits

Hey
Does anyone here have any intel on Loop Health's work culture? What are the people and founders like?

It can be either a strange workplace policy, an altercation with a manager or absolutely anything else.

What's the most toxic incident you've come across at your workplace?

Despite meeting all targets, I've been put under PIP. The HR is saying that I have one month to improve my performance or I'll be asked to leave, and that too without severance. 

I just want to know if there are similar policies at your company?  Means are you not eligible for severance if you are being asked to leave under PIP?

I've been put under PIP at Unacademy

This is just a way for the company to escape from paying severance pay. 
  
 Start looking for a new job and move on. 
  
 Be confident that’s it’s nothing to do with your skills or capabilities.

I don't know if it's a stupid question but a client wants me to install AWS workplace in my device

I want to know if it can be used to monitor or track anything on my device?

Does AWS workplace allow the employer to monitor devices?

So I got call from my director I thought its a normal update call but he asked me to put papers over the teams call.

I got panicked and I asked him why what happened so he said we are not happy with your performance and your work in not good. Same feedback he has got from others. 

But I have never got any feedback from my managers or senior saying that my work is not good nor i got any formal mail saying that i am doing bad work. 
Also i have never got any mail from HR for this or regarding PIP.

1. Is this some kind of politics he is doing with me? 
2. Can someone ask you to put papers over the call? 
3. Can someone directly fire me like this?

What should i do in this situation as i am really scared and in a panic mode as I really don’t have an another offer in my hand. 

Should i put papers or what should i do in this situation?

Can someone fire you on call?

Can someone tell me which are the good product based companies for .Net developer with 1.5 YOE.

.net jobs in product based companies

Hey guys,

I wanted to know that if you are put on PIP, which basically means you are about to be fired and you resign from your position before PIP ends, does it show up during background verification that this guy was put on PIP in oyr company.

Also how strict is this background verification, does the third party verification also enquire about your performance in the previous company?

Copywriter

In my BGV process it was found that I was a junior DS in one of the previous orgs. In my resume I mentioned it as just DS, without the 'junior'.
The HR has informed this has come up as a red flag from the BGV company.

This is weird. Has this ever happened to anyone and will this lead to termination? If yes, do they also ask to pay back the salaries? I have already worked for 3 months here.

Have you or anyone you have worked with ever been fired with some made-up reason by HR, during a situation when the product was close to completion and maybe the developer was not needed anymore?
