Usually giving a less than satisfactory performance review, usually that warrants a pip, and reason enough to not hire post pip Also most people resign after a pip just to avoid the mental harrassment Know this has been happening across teams at Flipkart Most people want to avoid an altercation so resign through mutual consent, so unless there's a mass layoff, companies will look to trim their wage bills this way
