My team PIPed me and laid me off. As my severance they gave me time to continue being employed and look for a job (with an end date) without taking me off projects. I already helped out during this period but now it’s almost over and they still keep asking for more ??? Why can’t I get severance and be left alone like a normal person. I know people say don’t burn bridges, but I am so done and don’t want to lift another finger for this trash team.

I can't speak to PwC, but in my experience a PIP leads to being fired, not being laid off. In that case, it sounds like they're being fairly generous by letting you continue to work, albeit with a definite end date, instead of just showing you the door.

It’s odd because they tell you that you get fired but give severance, bonus and so on but report covid related to unemployment

Feel free to DM me I was in a similar situation with pwc

I don’t understand. Severance is pay after you’re let go, if you’re still working then that’s not severance but regular pay. Talk to a lawyer

They didn’t call it severance but it is effectively severance from my understanding. I read my original offer letter and I think the “notice period” (time between firing/lay off communication and end date) is my severance.

They told you you’re going to lose your job at [x] date but are continuing to pay you? Like....what do you expect? Severance is typically given to people that voluntarily left or are actually getting laid off(I.e. not pip’ed out). I’m genuinely failing to see your issue....it sounds like they are being pretty good to you.

I’ve never known any firm to give severance to people being let go for performance reasons 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
