Depends

Same thing happened to me at my first job. I won employee of the month in my first month and was praised for 5 months. I walk in one day from lunch and I’m terminated. Sigh.
Lol what did you do OP

Rarely do people get randomly fired in the US
Had to be behavior/integrity related. Impossible to terminate someone at PwC without jumping through hoops otherwise. Employment counsel is paid to well.
Seriously. I was told there is a PIP minimum amount of months for our practice before someone gets Tier 5’ed

I’d agree but it depends on the magnitude of the lack of effort and will

Okayy, this sound’s dodgy af. That ‘vertical’ doesn’t sound like a good home and they probably did your friend a favor honestly
I’d be surprised if it wasn’t a behavioral thing, did you do or say something? Did they put you on a do not rehire list? Was everything as usual then one day a meeting popped up and seeya bye? I feel like there’s more context here

OP tell him to hit me up happy to give him a referral to BDO.

Pretty sure thats how it works at most places. BDO you only get terminated pre-PIP if it’s behavior related and not performance related.
You or someone you know received a random termination due to performance?
Happened to you? Especially unusual at a company the size of pwc
Idk know
Hell no. At-will employment works both ways. Just like you want the ability to quit your job at any point without notice, your employer wants an equal right to terminate you without notice.

It means that they don't think the person will retaliate. Are they an immigrant in the H1B process?
We do have PIP’s at PwC….
