Got put on a PIP after years of decent reviews. Did nothing on the PIP (at all.). Got several angry phone calls to my personal cell from manager and HR. Ignored them and stopped coming in to work. Within a week had *several* solid offers for better jobs. Took a couple months off and now have a great new job that pays 2x and is a double promo. So PIP possibly should stand for "time to get a more interesting, higher paid job with tons of new RSUs".
I’m currently surviving day 45 of a 60-day PIP, and the psychological warfare of this process is worse than the actual threat of being fired. I’ve hit every single arbitrary metric they set for me so far, but my manager still treats me like a stranger and documents every casual Slack message I send. It’s completely obvious that the plan isn't meant to rehabilitate me, it’s just a legal shield for HR to clear the desk. If you actually managed to beat a PIP, did you stay at the company or just use the time to find a clean exit?
I had two interviews this week and one screening call but I still don't feel confident that i will reach the next round. I have 20 years experience working with infrastructure (physical hardware) but have a AWS cloud practitioner Certification. The jobs seem more based on Workflow, process, new technologies. Yes, I can do those things but i fear my experience in those areas are not as prominent than another person. I feel stuck in a place I want to transition out of. How do i break out?
My company strongly encourages us to use copilot for coding. I have two “vibe coders” in my team. Sometimes they do funny things (like writing a separate java class with getters for two constants, complete with a test class - all AI generated and absolute BS), but most days, it’s taking a toll on the rest of us. The most annoying part is that the management praises the “creative duo” while we struggle, trying to put out their fires and keep the code quality decent.
Hi, honestly don't know if you've gotten any help so far based on what you need? I'm a Shopify Website Developer and I'll love to assist you.
I don't work there anymore but I may be able to answer some questions for you. They are a really great company to work for or they were when I worked there anyhow.
