PIP is nothing but soft force exit they’re giving..
You’ll be asked to complete trainings and prove why the person should be retained…
pip is given to people who have been charging on admin code/ on bench for a long time… basically not getting billing from any client…
In some companies, you cannot forcefully fire people, especially if european. So to prove they gave you chance, they put you on pipe, in case if you want to file suit later on, they can demonstrate they gave you enough time to fix yourself but you didn't.
For most cases, if you are out on pipe, they already have decided to let you go. I say use pip time to upskill and get job outside your org. Upskill, prepare, float cv, mock interview, capstone projects, do it like your life depends on it and if you are on right path, you will sooner or later land a better offer.
During all that phase, handle your anxiety and believe good things have to happen.
Also upskill on what market needs, put your prime skill on naukri or linkedin, search the jobs that appear, scan 50 such vacancies and see what other skills they need other than your prime skill, make a list of those, it will be big list. Now target the top 5 or 3 or 2 because rest all is just whislist. If you make yourself confident in those then target next skill and so on. Find skills that market is ready to pay for.
Better to move out once put in pip/pep
99% you ll be out so better prepare yourself and start giving interviews

@SE1 - Could you please explain what exactly happens during PIP?
you will lose your variable pay and hike.
and have to put efforts learning and there will be extra scrutiny, better to leave asap
For PIP happenings, speak to anyone from Citi Pune. Affected people will let you know how PIP was used purposefully to make someone leave.
