[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a fed manager, the only time I saw people fired was during probationary period. Other than that, once you were in at my agency, it was next to impossible to PIP someone out. HR's solution was always "can you find somewhere to transfer them to?"[/quote] Yes, this happens in private sector too. It's almost never a case of "firing this person is against the rules." So changing the rules is not a solution. People, HR included, avoid or bungle difficult conversations. That's behind the majority of the "it's hard to fire" stories - either directly, or because people didn't address performance and pay and job expectations before it got to the firing stage. It happens everywhere, it's not a legal issue, and it doesn't have a law-based solution. [/quote]
