I’ve posted before about being put on a PIP, and I’m still on it, (feedback I received centered on responsiveness, quality control on my work product, and moving my cases forward) , but I wanted to share a few updates. I’m continuing to receive new cases, I was complimented on my writing today and have been a few times, and generally I don’t feel like I’m being sidelined. However, I did mess up one assignment, trying to not let that get to me. My partner today told me to “keep it up”.

Hopefully these are all good signs and I’ll have a job at the end of all this. 😅

I would still be applying, sometimes a PIP is a warning other times it’s just procedure to push you out

Honestly start applying. I had the same feedback. I kept getting staffed on new matters and was complimented on and thanked for my work. I "messed up" on one matter (really I didn't include an item as a flag on a memo because in previous deals it wasn't a flag. Senior attorney asked why I missed it, I said I didn't miss it I chose not to include it). Today I was told to start looking for a new job and that matter I "messed up" was mentioned as an example of my work quality. A PIP is never a chance for you to improve -- it's a chance for them to have a paper trail if they decide you haven't improved. Best of luck!

Yup!

I am an employment lawyer. Still start applying and save emails where you received compliments on you work.
