Doesn’t happen often, but it also depends on how toxic the team is.

Agree. If SA and manager don't have a time to coach or they do not want to coach new staff - it will be a problem. They will probably blame new staff for "mediocre performance " instead of thinking why did it happen.

Like a new hire from October? That’s pretty rare. Honestly, I’m surprised they weren’t fired. New hires have a 90 probation period where the firm can terminate you without any questions asked.

@RSM 2, it's not a big firm. It's a large regional in upstate NY (top 50). The partner, from what I've heard, doesn't like this staff.

Things aren’t always what they seem sometimes. Tools like PIPs are sometimes used to push people out for whatever reason. If possible, my suggestion is to help the person with the PIP, if reasonable and possible and not make assumptions. Just my POV.
