Just received "career conversation" invitation for Monday from partner. HR CC'd as well. I didn't have the very good reviews this year. Should I expect to get laid off?

OP - you need to clarify which type of partner. If it is your relationship partner, you're getting put on a PIP. If it's some sort of market resources partner, likely to be a layoff. Either way, get your resume together and be prepared to talk to recruiters on Monday.

After staff 1 year we all had a personal meeting with a partner (we were on 10degree). I don't recall if HR was CCed. If no one else in your class has received invites you're probably getting put on a PIP.

I wouldn't think it's a PIP. I think the firm is letting go a lot of people given how much they overhired for vision 2020 and how poor the outcome is. The firm is getting cheap these years and Weinberger really sucks. OP, just be prepared for anything.

I wouldn't want to be with a firm or an office that doesn't explain or invest in you to improve your performance. If it is indeed PIP, I'd pay close attention to the actual plan they set for you to get out of PIP. Is it measurable? Is it constructive? I was told one of A1 got a feedback that the A1didn't communicate with client enough. Problem is they wanted all the emails to sent by A3 and above. WTF kind of feedback is that if you're telling your A1 not to send emails directly to clients and then turn around tell staff they're lacking communication with client? Anyways, if it's some lame feedback like that with no quantifiable measurements to show your improvement, you probably pissed someone off and they're trying to force you out. If that's the case I'd consider it time savings since you shouldn't be with a team like that anyways
