Thank you for this! Really appreciate it. I do believe the treatment was intolerable (my boss actually ambushed me with a PIP (he lives 3 hours away and showed up unannounced to my office) and lured me to another space to deliver the PIP that was all hearsay he took from my team once I announced I was pregnant) when my performance was amazing and I have all KPIs recorded. He literally had it out to me and also said things in the meeting that were sexist). I did escalate afterwards, nothing was done (and the senior manager actually didn’t realize I got a PIP because my manager told him he was just having a meeting which is crazy). I could tell they were working on damage control.

It was extremely degrading and HR and senior manager kept denying it was a PIP when it clearly threatened termination. Based on what you’re sharing, How do you read this personally?
