No. You’re in danger.

Nope, mostly because 1 - they cost more and 2 - because they are 2 levels higher, close to an EM (the go-to person in a given engagement)

Yes. They’re given 6 months in feedback foundations; though expectations are still higher than for a fresh associate

Call me cynical, but PIPs are less about fixing employees and more about a paper trail to protect the company.

A PIP or equivalent is going to happen at a large company for minor issues. Termination will still happen for single events that are more serious or legal feels it is low risk.

I’m not a lawyer or HR, but as a manager this is my interpretation

I can't believe MBA actually accelerates you that much. School was mainly fluff, I earn so much more about real world consulting on the job.

Question for folks with second homes: Considering buying a vacation home but would be primarily for family use.

If I were to buy the second home through an LLC, would that allow me to exceed that 750K since the expenses of the second home would be pass through expenses/income?
