Without knowing anything specific, I say yes. A hot job market and no reason not to start over with maybe more pay and a clean slate. Why bother with coming back to even when you can maybe get a better situation?!!

Look for a new job. Imo, most PIPs are meant to create a paper trail to protect the firm from wrongful termination lawsuits, not provide an honest opportunity for improvement. Assume the worst and look for a new job.

Job wasn’t exactly what I had in mind and due to that, I’d say my motivation and job performance has slipped as well. I like the company’s mission, just not my part to play in it. I’m just not really qualified to offer more than my role. I see these insane salaries on here everyday and wonder if the grass is greener. Plus we aren’t WFH, and that sucks.

Pay is better when you jump! But also, don’t believe all the salaries you see on here, many are inflated or crazy one off situations.

How would you handle not getting a lunch break when you are a salaried employee treating patients for 40 hours a week?

Some of us have reached out to HR and we’re told to discuss it with the regional director, but the regional director says we’d have to come in early or leave late to block out a lunch break. My commute is an hour each way, so I’d prefer not to make my day any longer. Advice?

Just got another rejection... Is exiting to FAANG or MB really this hard? Trying to go tech.. or mbb, but not getting anywhere. I have 2 masters (mba, ms) from top schools, been in consulting for over 10 years, I am confident that I know my stuff well..but still I keep getting rejected. Interviewed with Google, Amazon, Cisco, McKinsey, and a few others and every-time there is something that is not a match... are the hiring managers looking for like 100% match? That will never happen!!!
