You would most likely need to be put on eval then have a time frame to fix the issue. You should be fine holding out

If it’s impacting your performance, then yes. But it would have to be documented and presented to you. And you’d have an opportunity to respond. Generally it takes a lot to get to that point as an employer to write up an employee (at least from my experience with writing up two employees). You’re given a period to correct your action. So, all in all, I’d say you’d likely be at your new job before you’d have to really worry about it.

They would give you a timeframe with specific things they need to see and/or can’t see.. and it could be 30 days, 60 days, or 90 days.. so for example, one person I wrote up it said if he fell asleep in another meeting, he would go on final written notice.. so just an example. I think if you get a formal offer this week and a background check takes two weeks, then you give a two week notice, you’d still likely be in about a months timeframe.
They can. Have you started looking elsewhere? So many places are hiring right now. I would start looking.
