[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Idk you likely get some to leave and the others put in the best month’s worth of their lives.

I personally only put people on pips when I want them to improve. Mixed results. The good ones improve and the bad ones can’t improve and they leave/fired. I’m always shocked that a few aren’t willing to actually do their work and would rather be fired, but it happens. [/quote]

Your strategy only works if there is enough work to go around. The mass pip is because work has dried up. It’s cruel to put someone on a pip and then not actually give them the work they need to succeed[/quote]

I’m not an HR attorney but honestly, putting someone on a pip and firing them for reasons outside of their control seems really illegal?[/quote]

This is really common now.  It's to avoid paying severance and unemployment.  It should be illegal but you'd have to sue and prove it.[/quote]

Is there law that prevents employers from creating a hostile work environment even when there’s no EEO issue?

Just seems like you should be able to sure when an employer engages in behavior designed to put psychological stress on you so you will quit instead of having to pay you what you’re owed.[/quote]
