[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not for performance, but there are other ways to get rid of you. They can fire you for being marginal or lower in any element that is considered critical after PIPing you. If they are literally telling you to move on, they are giving you an easy way out. If you don't take it, I'd expect them to start documenting poor performance and PIP you.[/quote]
That makes sense. My rating is not marginal and I've not been PIP'd. It sounds like as long as I'm at satisfactory, or above, I should be ok?[/quote]

yes. Keep in mind they know that no other business unit will touch you with a marginal rating. If they are telling you you're less than satisfactory, they are giving you a way out. If you don't take it, you may be marginal in an element the next time you get a review. [/quote]

+1.  Can you have an honest discussion with your manager about your performance?  Perhaps it is as PP suggests and your performance really is unsatisfactory even if you were rated satisfactory.[/quote]
