How to get a roll off from project Where's there's alot of dependency on me as of now but I really don't want to continue due to mental pressure and not much to learn. How can I start and what can be a good reason to get a roll off?

It's only 3 months I joined an MNC. I'm one of the 20 new members to the team joined recently, so the total team is of 45.

Now, the manager says there's no budget and going to put all 20 on PIP. She says, if during PIP if the performance is good, she'll hold back few.

All the people are working their ass off but I hear PIP is only for termination.

Should I also work hard or start looking for other jobs?
Will I be in bench for other projects or directly terminated with 3 months of pay? 🫠

Hi All 🙂👋🏻
I joined IBM on 30 May 2022 but an still on bench.
I joined as a Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O functional consultant and it seems like there are no F&O projects.

I got 2 calls for AX 2012(Older version of F&O) projects but having worked only in F&O, I do not want to switch to an older version of the ERP. And I had made this clear during my interview itself.

Is there any chance of getting fired? Its scaring me now to be honest.

Considering a move to NTT Data in a healthcare consulting role. Mixed reviews in the bowls. Major concerns are bench policy, staff aug roles, 2 week PTO, and high turnover due to job dissatisfaction.
