As long as you get paid for the notice period, I don’t see the problem

First he posted saying 'We ban PIPs from now on' and people started celebrating. Only folks who understand him a bit more knew something like this was coming next

Why not leave? Why put bread on the table for your family, earning from an institution you hate?

Genuine question.

Been trying for close to a year, on my way out soon. Sometimes it's not that simple

It’s actually not harsh.

If you’ve managed in any capacity, you know PIP doesn’t work. It’s just delaying the decision. It hardly ever fixes performance. And if you’re putting someone on PIP, you’ve already made up your mind.

Pretty sure some rando will still reply with “asli ID se aa” crap, so I’ll tell you that I have nothing to do with Unacademy and don’t like a lot of what they do. But here he’s right.

If you like anything about what Unacademy is today (not what it was) then you know nothing about what Unacademy is today.

Can you elaborate a bit on what Unacademy is today?

Oh man. This is harsh. Feels like too much happening. Why are companies suddenly becoming harsher in the last 10 days of the year?

when Hiring for entry level SDE was done at peak pay, this was bound to happen. Smart people will think twice to join such companies. Companies to attract talent will offer bigger pay than the last time and circle repeats....

It's a sheer overconfidence, God knows on what... Each of their projects are shutting down every other day yet see the audacity of these guys lol

So PIP is a must. Can’t simply uproot someone’s life like that.

Notice period is a fairly redundant thing, because anyways employees don’t work in the notice period as we are busy with the job search. Meanwhile the organisation is counting on their deliverables (whatever little they may be). So may have a KT for 5 working days. Provide a severance that’s in the employment contract and that could be a fair win-win for both parties.

That tells there is no HR function

How do you see this from a HR standpoint?

It could be a good move if it also came with a direct exit on resignation. Why should employees waste their time on a non-performing company?

TCS- From 75% to 0%, that was pretty fast!

This is absolutely meme material!! They declared that 75% of employees will work from home by 2025, and before even 2025, they reverted that and now claiming everyone to come to office all 5 days!! I mean not even Hybrid, but all 5 days!...
