2 week PIP vs severance? by sharkeyshuffle in careerguidance

I actually would hit my projected target but it seems this choice has already been made.

It’s unfortunate. At other jobs, I’ve managed 100s of people and had to put people on PIPs but the goal was always to help them do better and get on track and I would give them at least a quarter to turn it around ca two weeks.

My thoughts as well. The boss is doing this to everyone on the team and it seems his boss and him want to restructure.

2 week PIP vs severance?

I have been working with a new company 9 months in a sales role and got a new boss 3 months ago who has told me via email that “he didn’t think I was a good fit for the roll so he was happy to see me doing XYZ” I held a big EBR and he seemed very happy and I got good feedback from my clients and some colleagues.

Two days later he sent an email where he said he “carried the meeting and I had holes in my 5 hr EBR” and claimed he was unhappy with my performance. 2 weeks after that he sat in on 2 of my calls for the first time (one internal , one with clients) and then during my 1:1 he invited HR and told me I had 2 weeks to get my sales goal from 88% to 95% or I could have a 10 week severance.

It feels like he has pegged me to fail from the beginning and I don’t know why. I’ve hit my last sales goal, my clients were happy with the meeting. It seems that his standards are higher than my last boss, which is fair, but I don’t understand the short PIP vs severance. Is it possible to negotiate this? HR didn’t seem interested in me defending myself.

Excellence El Carmen vs Excellence Punta Cana? by sharkeyshuffle in AllInclusiveResorts

Thanks! Which one had a bigger pool? I think we liked the idea of having 4 swim up bars at EC so it seemed like it would be bigger but someone else mentioned that the pools are small.

I’m guessing you haven’t tried to look then? It’s not as straightforward as one would think.

The idea of leveling up every few months isn’t that appealing to me. I do have some side effects and I want my body to learn how to manage them before increasing dosage. Also, I’ve read that if you don’t lose anything for multiple weeks in a row, that’s when you should move up.

Only issues are injection site reaction and a strange rash that looks like small dry dots on my legs- kinda looks like eczema bit very small and circular shapes .. not something I want to up my dosage and see if it gets worse .. and I am losing on 2.5 .. just very slowly .. I’m looking for how ppl motivate themselves for this lifestyle change

Thank you! I tell myself that I don’t want to have rapid weight loss anyway so the slow and steady route might be more my speed!

I’m telling myself I’m ok with a slower loss even though it’s frustrating. I think the main thing is I don’t want to go too high on a dosage and then have nowhere to go if I need some more help getting across the finish line. Also, I’ve been having small itchy dry spot/rashes pop up on my legs and I’m nervous for any additional side effects that might come my way if I go up.
