Trending @Infosys; Seeking Advice on Unfair PIP Evaluation
Hello community
I need some advice regarding an issue I faced at my job at Infosys. I was placed on a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) with goals that included completing certifications and accelerate tasks. While I completed the certifications, the accelerate tasks were never assigned to me. Despite this, my performance was evaluated, and I was told I failed the PIP, leading to HR taking action against me.
Here are my main concerns: 1. Incomplete PIP Process: Accelerate tasks were not assigned, yet my performance was still evaluated. 2. Unfair Evaluation: The evaluation seemed unfair without the necessary tasks. 3. Lack of Support and Communication: There was little guidance or communication about the PIP process.
I’ve asked HR and my manager for clarification and am waiting for a response. Meanwhile, I’d appreciate any advice or similar experiences you can share. How did you handle such situations? What steps did you take?
Thank you.
Pip is designed to fail you. Not sure about Infy but that’s how they are doing it in most places. Putting you on Pip gives them an ethical way to fire you. Otherwise they don’t have reason and maybe you could sue them. So this is the best way. Once on Pip I think you should start looking out for opportunities and switch. No point in being here you will anyways have to leave Infy in future. I would say this is a good motivator. Don’t bother completing the pip tasks just focus on getting an offer.
The ultimate aim of PIP is to reduce employee count in infy, nothing else
