Fishes need suggestions. I have been put on PIP for bad performance. I am being a part of 6 months project and project is about to complete with backend work done. I took more time for some tasks because of not knowing the technology so they highlighted that and my senior send emails to HR to put me on PIP. What should I do ? Acknowledge PIP ? Or resign? Or let them terminate me so I can claim salary of three months as fnf settlement? Getting confused, please suggest.

anyone see the irony in the fact that one of the only coins to hold steady in dollar value during this entire mess is TRX, which was berated by all prior to the crash? :p too bad I don’t own any 😭
