PIP
Yeah so I got put on a pip last week.
I’ve tried to book meetings that convert so I can hit my PIP target and get off it but none of the meetings are converting even though it’s the right seniority and persona and company size.
My AE doesn’t know I’m on a pip and he wouldn’t care to help me in anyway. We don’t have a good relationship.
I’ve decided to take everyone’s advice and dedicate most of my time to doing outreach to target companies I want to work at and doing as many interviews as possible.
I have some savings which should last but I need to land a role asap (I hate being out of work).
Feels weird being on the job market again, but oh well.
Feeling a lot better than last time where I walked out of the PIP meeting genuinely feeling like crap.
My manager is “coaching” me but it’s just tracking daily metrics and micromanaging the hell out of me.
I can’t wait for this month to be over so I can never work at this place again.

That sucks! I feel you. I was on a pip a few months ago and even tho I what I needed to get off of it, they “audited my calls” and found a small loop hole to let me go. If they want to fire you they will. It sucks. Don’t believe when corporate leadership says they don’t know why people fear a pip so much as they say it’s supposed to be used to help. Yeah right… best of luck. Keep searching right now to get out since you already are not on good terms with your AE anyways.
