What are some clues you're being fired? I have 2 sudden unplanned meetings with my PML and team about feedback/expectations tomorrow. I know I haven't been doing well, how should I prepare myself?

What do reviews say? If you have not received any negative feedback in a written review, the next most likely step is a PIP (performance plan). If things are not going well, the PIP will spell out how long you have before the axe swings. Right now, get your resume ready to send and your references lined up. Look for a new job every spare second you can and try to buy time at your current job until you find a new home. Best of luck to you.

Just got let go and my manager said part of it was because I was looking for other jobs. I didn't look for other jobs at work, so I'm not sure how they could have known that unless a coworker snitched on me. Is it worth it to try and find out who or should I just leave it? Can't deny that I'm seriously pissed off about it.

Looking for some advice here: I work for a client that loves me & I love him back as well. Get along super well with the creative team and we’re like “one team” . However, I am having problems with the management of my agency. I thought of maybe talking with my client about it (the CMO) to see if he pressures the account MDs. Any tips on how to solve this situation?

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

I’m new to the firm. My third project my manager was very hands off. He’s wants to have a discussion with me about my performance. He did not give me any support to work with; even when I asked! And my direct manager agrees with him, but it was my third week. What to do? I feel like I’m going to say something crazy. Any advice?

Admin has to know she treats the kids this way too. One teacher has to work with her door closed to not hear the yelling all day.

It’s closer to what I studied, but don’t know how to make the jump as it seems an internal transfer could take 6+months/senior rank and a lot of convincing. Is it better to jump firms/has anyone done this?
