Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

Is there any such cases where pip is closed negetive forcefully and employee has given enough documentation proof about his positive work in organization with various certifications, and employee has refused to resgin as that pip procedure was vague completely what could happen now?

Hi guys,
I am recently facing a situation where I am about to be put in PIP. I was working in US tax for 2 years and my outcome was not coming positive. So to avoid the PIP situation I took a transfer to US compensation for the same. As I thought I can give a fresh start to my career. But recently I have been reached out by talent and they are putting me in the PIP situation. My Coach is also not supporting and I don't want to be in this situation since I have a lot of financial burden and the job market situation is not great as well. What should I do in this situation?

Please reply I really need suggestions

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I am a fresher who is about to join a company in Bangalore. I've heard a lot of people mentioning the word 'PIP' on grapevine as well as reddit.
Can you enlighten me with its meaning? Thanks.

What is PIP

Today I got a call from the HR team that I've been put on PIP. I have been on Bench for 2 months and they are doing it for Cost cutting. Furthermore they asked me to get a project in 2 months otherwise I have to self resign.

My doubt is if they forced me to resign after 2 months in case I didn't get any interview calls, Will they give me notice period (3 months) salary???

Product Marketing Manager

My Manager told me that I am not performing well and suddenly put me in PIP plan . He has already told me in September that my performance was low, and I have worked hard after that to show him. Even in 1:1s after September he has told me that I am improving. But I did not expect him to give me the pivot document suddenly. He has given a project which I was already working on and now I need to deliver it by Nov end. The L4 (front end/software engineer) tasks are not easy to achieve, but I am scared about the fact that recession is coming and this might be an Amazon way of kicking people out and even if I delivered everything he asked for, he can still decide to kick me out. So , can anyone help me with referrals and tell me what should I do at this situation?  What is the best way to survive PIP as well as prepare for interview? I am in L4 and have worked for amazon for 14 months till now.

Is it easy to come back from a PIP there or you'll be booted to meet their quota usually?

How realistic is it to survive a PIP at Amazon India?

Finally the day I am expecting it to come already. I am into PIP. Even though I have worked hard and am getting peanuts for my hard work.  The hard work is lost against the bajans as always. The manager's feedback is the finale to get into PIP.Now  I need to learn how to do bajan without working hard. If you have good communication skills to impress the manager then you grow but not with the technical skills and other analytical skills always they are the least priority. As if you can't speak up then other teammates can easily take your credits and get promoted. You need to always talk and tell about the things you never did and claim that you did it all yourself. This is the way IT is working as said by most of the people. Even though you are not that type you need to change otherwise you can't survive in IT. This is the bitter truth. HR people never contact you neither about your wellbeing nor about your hard work to appreciate you at least they never had a word with you when you are getting into PIP. They simply listen to manager feedback without asking a question they will put you into PIP. They don't care whether you have been targeted or got the wrong feedback against you. They never see the got commits the code you have implemented the performance you have improved the code quality you have maintained in fact they simply don't care about all these.

Getting into PIP is very easy if you are a hard worker.But you don't prefer to impress your manager ego

I have been put on PIP (Performance Improvement Programme) . 

It's a 3 month long thing, I have to show improvement, if I don't, I will be let go. 

They are saying that my technical skills are weak and I need to spend time outside my work brushing up those skills. If I improve then good else they'll let me go. 

Things escalated this much because my team lead complained that because of me, he had to rework certain things in the project which increased the timeline.

And he did this to save himself. He has been working on another task alone by himself since a month. I had no involvement in that, yet he's taking so long himself. To hide his shortcoming as a team lead, he is using me as a shield.

Now my dilemma is, should I focus on proving my worth to the company or should I just keep applying for jobs?

Considering the current market situation, what would be the best way for me to look for jobs?

I have been put on PIP

As part of the PIP I have been given tasks to do alongside my regular project and they said that they evaluate me based on that.

I'm supposed to do these PIP related tasks outside work hours and weekends.

My TL expects me to give updates on this every single day. Expecting significant updates, knowing clearly I'm supposed to do it outside work hours.

He's the one who put me on PIP by creating a lot of noise, even included the India Head of the company, saying that I'm the person because of whom the project timelines got delayed. Now he's asking me to prioritise the PIP task over the project. He's upset that he's not getting regular updates from me on the PIP task.

This situation is super confusing. Idk what to do. How to manage my time with regular project + PIP task + job search + personal responsibilities + household chores?

Hello viner,
A co worker of mine has been put on PIP by the company HR based on her managers feedback. Even though she got an average rating ,she did not get along well with the Manager and he got the HR to put her into PIP. HR here mostly follow what department leads tell them.

But there are some discrepancies :
1) HR has not formally sent her a email informing of the PIP procedure. This is all verbal
2) Her manager also hasn't given her any concrete milestones. He just said that she will be judged based on the feedback from fellow co workers.
3) Of late, the HR has been forcing her to resign even though the final date of pip period has not been reached.

Is this the normal PIP procedure followed in your companies too? 
Or is there something suspicious here?

Hey All,

I’m going to have meeting with HR regarding  PIP next week. There I need to take decision whether I have to resign and take 4 months pay or whether I have to go with PIP plan and perform certain tasks for 2 months what they will decide and evaluate.
I’m a bit confused what option should I need to opt.
I’m looking for jobs but didn’t receive any calls till now but I’m actively applying.

From many people I’ve heard that in PIP they are giving hard to achieve tasks and pressurising to resign else if got fail in PIP, they will terminate and will give termination letter instead of relieving letter.
What option should I opt , considering all the possibilities and current market situation?

P.S - I have 2 YOE in front end development 

Suggestions from experience would be highly appreciated and can help me.
