Hi all,

Will an employee be terminated while on a PIP due to RTO requirements, even if the employee is attending the office daily and has been consistently improving their RTO compliance percentage? initially it was only 7 percent and now he has improved to 17% and still has one more month to complete the PIP or is it better to search for a job outside IBM
