I'm on PIP, but I found a new job before getting laid off. Would the PIP have any impact on my future career?

Not unless they get ahold of your Permanent Record from your grade school principal...

In all seriousness you should be fine

Yeah, it’s on your permanent record

When you become a Partner you actually do get access to people’s permanent records, makes for really interesting reading. You’ll never guess who stole a Kit-Kat from the local store when they were 8!

No - GTFO from that place

No way anyone else will know you were on PIP unless you tell them. Make sure you grab the severance before you leave though.

likesmart

Some future job applications might ask if you've ever been fired from a previous job.

Get out before it happens. Not worth the severance.

likesmart

Usually when they ask “if you have been fired” they refer to “termination for cause” and that doesn’t include performance reasons.

Someone check me on this please, but wouldn't it behoove OP to just start his new job, not give notice at his old place and see how long he can go double dipping? If new employer doesn't allow second source of income, don't give notice, just stop working and then quit the day before you start your new job.

Can you get a bonus while on PIP?

I suppose it depends on your firm’s rules and the reason(s) for the PIP, but I would think the two are mutually exclusive at most firms, if your bonus is supposed to be a reward for good work…

Not true at all. I was on a PIP once years ago (for BS reason and the jerk SA who did it got canned later anyway…). I’m still at BAH. Now I’m a CM for someone on a PIP and they seem to have taken it to heart and has really stepped up their game. PIPs are like AA - “it works if you work it.”
